To protest against mass tourism, the Spanish have come up with a radical strategy. In a video shared on social networks, we see the residents of the area of O Morrazo, in Galicia, passing continuously in the process of crossing the road in the city. Cause? Stopping travelers from the road to the beach, whose weakness they consider shameful. Sunday August 25, between 60 and 80 people met at 11:30 am to participate in the activities.
The blockage lasted around twenty minutes. Last week, they blocked road traffic for 37 minutes. “We are tired of cars parking wherever they want, with impunity, without any fine.” Every year it gets worse, we have reached our limit,” hopes Esperanza Veiga, a resident.. The protest days are not chosen at random: Sunday is a sunny day too and is worth attracting tourists.
It is said that Spain has welcomed more than 40 million holidaymakers this summer. Regions such as the Balearics, the Canaries and Catalonia are particularly affected by tourism. Residents often take to the streets to demand more controls. They are complaining about the noise, the pollution, the lack of transportation facilities and even the increasing fees.
