In Barcelona, Laia and her daughter stroll peacefully in Park Guell. At the same time, Mladen savours the silence of the marble alleys of Dubrovnik while Fabiana soaks up the calm of old Lisbon.
在巴塞隆納，萊雅和女兒安然漫步在奎爾公園；與此同時，姆拉登正細細品味杜布羅尼克古城大理石巷弄的寂靜，法比亞納則沉浸在里斯本舊城區的一片寧靜之中。
These three corners of three cities, known for the hustle and clamour of tourists, are unusually tranquil.
這三座城市的三個角落，向來以觀光人潮喧囂聞名，現在卻異常靜謐。
The 42,000 inhabitants of the Croatian city of Dubrovnik, the "pearl of the Adriatic" where some of the television series "Game of Thrones" was filmed, are also rediscovering beaches which had become overrun by tourists.
有「亞得里亞海珍珠」之稱的克羅埃西亞城市杜布羅尼克，居民4萬2000人，是影集「權力遊戲」取景地，現在也找回曾經被觀光客淹沒的海灘。
It is a two-edged sword, bringing peace and calm as well as anxiety over the future of the economy.
這是一把雙刃劍，帶來平靜、安寧，也造成對未來經濟的焦慮感。
"We have been able to relax a bit during those two, almost three months," says Mladen Kriz, a 43-year-old telecom technician.
「在這兩個月、幾乎三個月期間，我們得以放鬆一下」，42歲的電信工程師姆拉登．克里茨說。
"At the same time, without tourists it is a bit empty," admits Kriz. "A lot of people live on that here. How will we live without tourists?" （AFP）
「同時，沒了觀光客也有一點空蕩蕩」，克里茨承認；「這裡很多人靠這維生，沒有觀光客，我們要怎麼過日子？」（法新社）
