Sitting on Rome's famous Spanish Steps is no longer allowed as the local police have decided to apply the rules in a more stringent way, sources said on Tuesday. Indeed, the famous steps are also considered to be a monument, meaning sitting or lying on them is banned.
Those who breach the ban risk a fine of 250 euros, which can go up to 400 euros if the steps are dirtied or damaged.
