1. Reykjavik, Iceland — The views are picture-perfect that has to be said. But that’s all there really is to it. Everything is way overpriced ($10 for a beer?) and the world-famous Blue Lagoon is notoriously overcrowded.
2. The Colosseum – Rome’s premier tourist attraction really is a tourist attraction—it attracts a great number of visitors. Expect to wait in line for a longtime, in which case, you may just opt to return to your hotel room after discovering that your wallet’s been stolen.
3. Hollywood Walk of Fame — The essence of it really are just names on the sidewalk. That, and mascot bugging you for photo-ops in exchange for a donation and unsigned singers greeting you with their CD on your face, would account for your otherwise leisurely walk along the strip. And don’t forget your fellow tourists that travel in droves -
4. Times Square — Another one of ‘em sucking the penny out of ya! Every store and restaurant within the radius is daylight robbery and there’s really nothing to see except for electronic billboards and less-than-impressive street performers. And did I mention electronic billboards?
5. Dubai — Perhaps the biggest surprise on this list, this is a big place with big ambitions and big balls to pull it off However, the only thing to do is look at the buildings and some people actually call it ‘boring.” The artificialness of it all is claimed to be too saccharine and devoid of any real culture. And then, there’s the terrible traffic.
