8 most overrated tourist destinations

Reddit user under the nickname KTsang1 I asked readers, what cities and sights unreasonably popular among tourists. For two days the trade has collected more than 25,700 comments. We choose the most interesting and unexpected.

Paris

As a tourist guide Paris, It is my time to be helpful and save you time and money.

• Louvre. Mona Lisa is not stóit several hours in line, and it's not the only da Vinci painting in a museum. The painting hangs in the tiny room, and tourists are waiting for 100 minutes on average to get there. Look better than other 34,999 exhibits reflecting 9000 years of human culture - and be sure to take a guide, not to get lost in all of this and not be disappointed.
• Les Invalides and the Military Museum. Stóit visit only if you are interested in Napoleon, or military history. Do not overpay for the input queue, the museum is almost always empty.
• The Eiffel Tower. Book a visit in a few months, or stand in line for hours. City views can be enjoyed from the Arc de Triomphe (cheaper, and the view is better; I advise you to pay for the ticket queue) or the Montparnasse Tower. Do not order anything at the restaurants at the top: you pay for the view, not the food.

• museums. They are beautiful and many can walk free. If you want to make a large-scale campaign to museums do not pay an entrance fee alone. Take a single museum ticket: It also allows you to pass the queue in many places.

Montaz

Pisa

In addition to a small square with a tower on which tourists make the same amazing funny photos and traders trying to sell you souvenirs, there is nothing to do. The rest of the city simply no. If so you are in Tuscany, visit any other small town, and get a lot more fun.

Do not climb the tower. See how it is done by other people, laugh and go better in the cathedral. Admission is free, but within the stunning frescoes. If it really wants to climb the tower, go to Siena - a local tower looks alarmingly high, but it's worth it, and tourists there at times less.

Bali

The island was beautiful 10 years ago, but bloggers is destroyed.

I was there a couple of weeks ago, and the place left a bad impression. It was as if I lived in Instragrame typical white girl: sometimes I even forget that I am in Indonesia.

I am Indonesian, and I look terrible, what happened to Bali. It's a big part of our cultural heritage, and tourists use it as a club, a toilet and a landfill. Pollute beaches and temples, trying to hit on the local.

I like to be in Bali during childhood, and the southern part is not yet completely surrendered to the tourists, but is moving in that direction. If you are planning to travel to Indonesia, choose a place north - yes, a rural area, but you will see what the Indonesian hospitality really is.

Oslofjord

If you are planning a trip to Norway, please choose any direction, Besides Oslo Fjord.

"Fjord" in the title is misleading - it is only the "narrow entrance" (Gulf). To see real glacial fjords, go to the west coast.

Gavekort

Taj Mahal

Yes, it is beautiful, but too many people, and it ruins the magic. All that you see, you've seen on thousands of postcards and photos. Inside the dark, surprisingly little space and you will always be customized, that lubricates impression. Visit the best Agra Fort - a stunning, bright and full of history.

Let me explain: I did not mean that you should skip the Taj Mahal, if you are traveling to Agra. That would just be silly. But do not expect too much, be prepared for the crowds of people and remember that in the city there are many other exciting places.

Stonehenge

For the sake of the protection of the monument will not let you get close. You will stand in line and pay just to get approximately the same form as if it were passing on the road. I respect its cultural significance, but if you include a video on YouTube, you will see the monument is much closer and get a more enjoyable experience than if they had seen him alive.

UglyNeckBeard

Hollywood Walk of Fame

I've never seen dirtier streets.

mirgyasen

Every 20 steps will "rappers"Trying to push you to your demos and mixtapes. Ignore them.

Squeeze the bag to him and keep all valuables in the front pockets.

There will be a lot of people dressed in costumes of pop stars. Never, I repeat: never Do not take photos with them. They snatch people from the crowd and to extort $ 20 for a selfie with some mummers clown. You will be persecuted, if not pay.

The top of Mount Everest

Users simply pay Sherpas that they bore the brunt of all the equipment and go on dangerous areas. Many tourists heated tent. Line to take a picture at the top, can be incredibly long - and dangerous, because most people are not adapted to such a height.
