After tourist trips, we will definitely bring colorful photographs. They remind us and tell our friends about the places we have visited. This is a good memory and many interesting impressions. We are even ready to forget those many kilometers of queues that we have defended in order to enjoy the beauty of these monuments.
So, here are the five attractions that collect the largest number of tourists.
Eiffel Tower in Paris
It is located in the capital of France, and has long been considered its symbol. It is simply impossible not to recognize this silhouette. It flaunts on postcards, in all guidebooks and serves as a kind of guiding star for tourists who find themselves in Paris. Naturally, everyone wants to get there. Every year about 7 million people go upstairs to admire the view of Paris. Of the visitors, only two thirds are foreign citizens. Is it worth it to squeeze through the crowds of tourists eager for new impressions only to then proudly say: "I was at the Eiffel Tower"? Of course it's worth it. At least in order not to regret a missed opportunity. Despite the fact that the Parisian photos look much more spectacular if the symbol of France is present on them than the views taken from the height of the creation of G. Eiffel.
Stonehenge in the UK
Traveling to the UK will undoubtedly take you to Wiltshire. It is there that the most mysterious and even mystical monument of prehistoric times is located. Stonehenge is a complex of structures of the Neolithic and Bronze Age, it consists of hundreds of mounds. But many tourists after visiting this monument are frankly disappointed. The fact is that visitors are simply not allowed close to the stone monoliths, offering to admire them from the parking lot located on the highway. Naturally, such contemplation does not give much pleasure. But this attraction is nevertheless worth a visit. At least in order to enjoy the magnificent landscapes of England and feel the extraordinary atmosphere of the ancient monument. After all, Stonehenge is on the list of the most mystical and mysterious places in the world.
Festival "Oktoberfest" in Germany
What do we associate Germany with? Of course, with beer and delicious sausages! For this, since 1810, about 5 million come to Munich every year. Tourists from all over the world want to feel the "German" fun and taste fresh beer. Some travelers are disappointed with the trip, because the prices for beer and various dishes are quite high. But the festival is great for those who like to spend time in the international crowd and enjoy the atmosphere of everyone's fun.
Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy
Having moved to Italy, or rather to the city of Pisa, we are immediately drawn like a magnet to the main attraction of this city. The bell tower of the City Cathedral is called the Leaning Tower. It so happened that after its restoration, the tower deviated 4 degrees from the vertical axis and took an inclined position. But you, for sure, have already seen all this on postcards and calendars. The most popular shot for tourists is to pretend they are supporting the Leaning Tower. But in order to do it, you will have to squeeze through the crowd of others.
Atomium in Belgium
The most visited attraction in Belgium. In 1958, the World Exhibition was held in Brussels. In honor of this event, the Belgians erected a grandiose monument in the form of 9 atoms united in a crystal lattice of iron, enlarged 165 billion times. The height of this monument is 102 m, the diameter of each atom is 18 m, and the whole attraction weighs 2,400 tons. 6 atoms can be visited, from the top a wonderful panorama of the Belgian capital opens. Many tourists consider the monument rather boring, but being in Brussels, why not visit it?
