The Spanish Steps in Rome (pictured) are set to reopen later this month following an 18-month cleaning and restoration project funded by luxury jewellers Bulgari. Paolo Bulgari, the company's chairman, has called for a fence to be installed of the marble staircase so the attraction can be locked up every night. Responses to the proposal have been mixed, with many in the Italian city calling for monuments to be preserved. However others have voiced their opposition to any such plan, stating that the stairs should be maintained for their original purpose. Bulgari donated £1.5m towards the fixing of cracked paving stones and removing of stains on the iconic stairs, which featured in the romantic comedy Roman Holiday.
