Rome has openly admitted that this tradition has provided around € 2 million on annual basis, especially for NGO Non-Profit Charity, a Catholic Church Caritas, which makes soups and breads for the underprivileged in the Vatican and Rome because of this.
The tourists find it a lucky charm to perform this tradition. A famous saying goes, "A trip to Rome isn't complete without ________ _ ____ ___ ___ _____"
To protect the "sanctity" of this tradition, Rome openly imposed fines and declared this an action of adulterating this sacred spot by committing. People say "I survived an year just by the _____ _____" etc.,
The place where this tradition happens is a main structure with an amphitheatric seating around it to observe the structure's marvellous carvings. It can be reached by Taking Line A (Red Line) to Barberini, a five minute walk from there. Switchovers from Termini are extremely painful to reach here (trust). The Gelato shops like Venchi's or Romeo's Gelato are truly amazing.
Put Funda as to why Rome banned it.
What famous tradition, Where?
