Top 25 Worst World Tourist Traps (2 of 5)

 

 

Avenue of Stars, Hong Kong

Wan Chai District, Cloud, Water, Sky, Building, Azure, Standing, Sculpture

Built in 2004, this is one of those traps for the Chinese mainland in mind. There are all kinds of souvenir shops and the main attraction is a statue of Bruce Lee. The only great thing about this is the fact that the view of the harbour is nice if you can squeeze through the crowd.

 

 

Sydney Fish Market, Australia

Meat, Food

While markets themselves are tourist attractions, this one is particularly bad. The only perks from this market is that they sell you overpriced fish. You can’t even get good views of the harbour thanks to all the cement factories.

 

 

Old Town, Prague

Prague, Cloud, Building, Sky, Window, World, Urban design

Out of all of Europe, this is one of the most jam-packed places to check out. Its streets are filled with people who come to check out this place. Instead of doing that, we’d suggest crossing the Vltava River and going to many of the parks that are there. From there, you’ll get a better view of the skyline and come to understand why Old Town is known as the City of a Thousand Spires.

 

 

Graceland, Tennessee

Graceland, Plant, Building, Sky, Property, Window, Tree, House

The cheapest tour of Elvis’s former home will cost you $30, which is already asking for a bit much. Unless you are someone who is a hardcore fan, it’s not worth paying this for such a small experience.

 

 

Notre Dame, Paris

Cathédrale Notre-dame De Paris, Cloud, Sky, Building

It was in April 2019 when there was a fire at Notre Dame, but it still doesn’t change the fact that this is a tourist trap at its core. It’s sad about the fire, but this is not a place where you can get some peace and quiet.
