Rome tops almost every traveler\u2019s bucket list, and it owes that to its historic attractions and iconic streets that have been drawing tourists for generations! One aspect of that is its historic cobblestone streets that serve as a major feature of Rome\u2019s history. Travelers absolutely love to walk down these streets and get clicked here. In fact, travelers love them so much that they sometimes even sneak off with a cobblestone or two they removed from these alleys to take home as souvenirs, as was revealed by a traveler in an apology letter once!<\/em><\/p>\n

But, alas! Word has it that this popular Italian city is all set to replace these cobblestone streets with asphalt. It was revealed in an announcement last week by the Mayor of Rome, Virginia Raggi, that about 70 of Rome\u2019s iconic busiest streets were to be replaced with smooth asphalt this year.<\/p>\n

\nWhile it may be a disappointment for many, Rome has some pretty good reasons for taking this step, people\u2019s safety being one of them. For once, cobblestones are difficult to navigate on, and one\u2019s fancy footwear tends to slip while walking on these stones, especially when the street is wet.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not all. The stones have come loose because of continuous vehicular movement over time, causing nasty injuries to cyclists who tend to fall off their bikes owing to these loose stones.<\/p>\n
