Tourist destinations can be places with historical significance, natural or man-made landmarks, or even places to visit for sheer amusement. Along with the several serious tourist attractions across the world, there are also some more novelty like attractions that don’t take themselves too seriously. These places include the “biggest ball of twine” which is located in Cawker City, Kansas or the Corn Palace located in Mitchell, South Dakota.
There are also “serious” tourist attractions that many people end up finding a bit disappointing for a variety of reasons. These places are often way too overcrowded, and sometimes you can barely see what you traveled hundreds or thousands of miles for. This list of The 10 Most Overrated Tourist Destinations includes statues, monuments, and even a shopping mall.
10. Stonehenge
Stonehenge is certainly one of the most famous tourist destinations in the world. This mysterious prehistoric monument has given birth to many theories including that it may have been an astrological temple, an ancient burial ground, or even that it was made by aliens. This tourist destination attracted more than 1.3 million people in 2014 alone, and many of them have been disappointed. Stonehenge is not easy to get to, and many people find it to be smaller than they expected and a bit underwhelming. Visitors are no longer allowed to go into the central ring of stones, so tons of people are walking around the outer circle at any given time. You may want to visit the replica Stonehenge in Washington State instead.
