This reduces the city's tourism revenue. So the mayor of the city has an initiative to create artificial beaches for people in the city who cannot go to the beach in the summer.
The original version of the Paris Plages was on the right bank of the river near the Notre-Dame de Paris church. And this event has created a positive effect not only for river people in the city but also for tourists coming to the city. So in the following years the number of Paris Plages sites increased and now there are 5 sites.
