Golf Car, Caddy And Rickshaw Operating In The Streets Of Central Florence.

Two tourists take photos of a golf cart parked in Piazza della Repubblica, Florence. In the background, the Arcone building with the inscription ''L'ANTICO CENTRO DELLA CITTA DA SECOLARE SQUALLORE A VITA NUOVA RESTITUITO'' (''The ancient center of the city, restored from centuries of squalor to new life'') is visible, along with the Apple Store and the carousel. In Florence, Italy, on October 9, 2025, golf cars, caddies, and rickshaws operate and park in the historic center of Florence, one day after the protest held by tour operators against the new municipal regulations. Starting from October 15, new rules come into force in the UNESCO area: no more than 24 vehicles circulate at the same time, only two pre-defined routes are allowed, and just one stop per route. Tour companies contest the restrictions and announce legal appeals. (Photo by Lorenzo Carmellini/NurPhoto)
