Tourist centers in France bans tourists wearing swimwear, going shirtless

In a bid to reduce too much skin exposure in public areas, popular tourist spots in France are now implementing a ban on tourists roaming the areas wearing only their swimwear.

Shirtless male tourists will also be ushered out of the premises as well.

Perpignan, a popular destination located near the Spanish border, became the latest French city to implement the ruling. Violators will be issued fines if they refuse to cover up after being approached by the authorities. The implementation came after the city of Cavaillon in Provence successfully carried out this ruling earlier this year.

Locals in these French cities have long complained about the instances of tourists going around the area wearing skimpy swimwear.

In Perpignan, locals were surprised to see a group of male British rugby fans going shirtless around the streets.
