Locals were seen gathering at restaurants and cultural sites in Rome on Monday as restrictions put in place due to the coronavirus pandemic were eased.
Restaurants and bars were limited to outdoor service only, while archaeological sites and museums were allowed to receive visitors once more, with theatres and cinemas also reopening their doors albeit with capacity limits and social distancing requirements.
One restaurant worker welcomed the move, saying “I hope this is the last lockdown and that they give us the opportunity to always be open. It is the most important thing for the sector.” Another man shared his joy that outdoor dining was back, explaining that he was ‘very happy’ about the opportunity.
