Most Famous Tourist Attractions In the World – Overrated and Crowded!

-
Going on vacation doesn't always mean going to a sunny beach somewhere exotic and relaxing on the sand. Many people instead choose to go places with great cultural artifacts or famous tourist attractions. There are thousands of different examples all around the world, but the vast majority of vacationers tend to focus on just the select few that have held something of a monopoly over the public’s imagination for generations. From the impressive Burj Khalifa in Dubai to the stunning Taj Mahal in India, here are the world's highest-rated landmarks.

25. Petronas Twin Towers, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

24. Panama Canal, Panama

23. Sydney Opera House, Sydney, Australia

22. Chichen Itza, Yucatan, Mexico

21. Wat Pho, Bangkok, Thailand

There are plenty of overrated travel destinations that you might be tempted to visit, personally I feel you must avoid it and go to some other less well-known tourist destinations. That’s my personal opinion, you can still go to these locations and click the cheesiest photos of life. Happy Vacations!

North Goa, the shoreline heaven of India is the most loved get-away spot among people who love beaches, beach parties, beach water sports and beach shacks. 1. Baga Beach Baga is one of the top party spots in Goa. There are plenty of shacks all around, nightclubs, and discos. The seaside is full of restaurants, cafes, shops, and resorts. Thai massage, tattoo parlor… everything is nearby. For the adventurer and water sports love, there is Jet Ski, windsurfing, and parasailing. Baga beach is located next to Calangute. The reason I mentioned this is I want to keep my point in Capital letters – DO NOT GO TO CALANGUTE. That beach is dirty, crowded and not worthy. Go to Baga if you are this side.
