Hm, the only thing that's really new is the how. Every major city of touristic interest finds some way to charge tourists - be it an extra fee for every overnight stay that goes directly to the city (not the hotel) or coach parking etc. etc. Venice only seems to suffer from the fact that the guests don't have to stay more than a day nor go into any buildings.
