意大利禁止麥當勞靠近古羅馬古建筑

Italy’s Culture ministry on Wednesday barred the construction of a McDonald’s fast-food restaurant next to the ancient Baths of Caracalla in Rome, with Mayor Virginia Raggi saying “the wonders of Rome must be protected.”

意大利文化部周三禁止在羅馬卡拉卡拉古浴場旁建造麥當勞快餐店，市長維吉尼亞·拉吉說：“羅馬奇觀必須得到保護。”

Culture Minister Alberto Bonisoli announced his decision in a Facebook post after the municipal administration loudly protested against the notion of serving burgers in the archaeological zone that hosts the third-century AD baths.

文化部長阿爾貝托·博尼索里在Facebook的一篇帖子中宣布了他的決定，此前市政當局強烈反對在三世紀的古浴場的考古區(qū)提供漢堡包。

“We go forward with the culture minister to stop fast food construction in the archaeological area of the Baths of Caracalla. The wonders of Rome must be protected,” Raggi wrote on Twitter after Bonisoli’s announcement.

“我們愿與文化部一起，呼吁停止卡拉卡拉浴場考古區(qū)的快餐建設，羅馬奇觀必須得到保護。”拉吉在博尼索里宣布后在Twitter上寫道。

McDonald’s did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

對此，麥當勞沒有立即回復置評請求。

McDonald’s has more than 40 outlets in the Italian capital, some of them in the vicinity of landmarks such as the Piazza Navona, Piazza di Spagna (Spanish Steps) and the Vatican, but not hitherto in the midst of its revered ancient quarter.

麥當勞在意大利首都擁有40多家分店，其中一些分店位于諸如納沃納廣場、西班牙斯帕尼亞廣場(西班牙階梯)和梵蒂岡等地標附近，但迄今為止還沒有在其備受尊崇的古城區(qū)中開設分店。

In 1986, intellectuals and television personalities fought, ultimately in vain, against the opening of the first McDonald’s in the Piazza di Spagna, calling it an offense to Italy’s traditional food culture.

1986年，知識分子和電視名人在意大利斯帕尼亞廣場(Piazza di Spagna)反對第一家麥當勞(McDonald's)的開業(yè)，最終以失敗告終，稱這是對意大利傳統(tǒng)飲食文化的冒犯。

In the case of the Baths of Caracalla, Italian media said the McDonald’s outlet was expected to cover 800 square meters (8,611 square feet), in an area where new construction must meet strict criteria to reflect historical tradition.

在卡拉卡拉浴場的案例中，意大利媒體表示，麥當勞的門店預計將占地800平方米(8611平方英尺)，該地區(qū)的新建筑必須符合嚴格的標準，以反映歷史傳統(tǒng)。

The former garden center that would have hosted the new McDonald’s is located between the baths and the ancient Aurelian walls, a few hundred meters (yards) away from the Coliseum and the Circus Maximus.

以前的花園中心將會成為新麥當勞的所在地，位于古浴場和古老的奧勒連城墻之間，距離競技場和馬克西姆斯馬戲團只有幾百米(碼)遠。

According to website statista.com, Italy last year had the fourth-highest number of McDonald’s restaurants in the European Union with 578, behind only Germany, France and Britain.

根據(jù)statista.com網(wǎng)站的數(shù)據(jù)，去年意大利擁有578家麥當勞餐廳，在歐盟排名第四，僅次于德國、法國和英國。
