Top Tourist Attractions
Do you want to know the top tourist attractions in a country?
Do you still need help deciding on your next destination?
I’ve narrowed down the answer, so you don’t have to read a looooong post to know which places they are.
Again, I’m trying to save you precious time!
Maybe you are thinking about going to a country you’ve heard excellent things about, but you are not sure what it has that may interest you. Or wonder what the most famous attractions in a country are.
The purpose of this post is to simplify all that information with a short list of the top tourist attractions of the most visited countries. I’ve included 106 countries on this list to give you more options.
This doesn’t mean these are the ‘only’ things to see/visit. Each country has many other exciting places, but the list would be too long.
Moreover, I’m always considering that you are like me, hence, limited time to visit a country. So, if I give you a list of the 50 most famous attractions, you won’t know which ones to pick.
Therefore, I’ve selected only between 5 and 12 ‘unmissable’ sites per country.
In the table below, you can search for one specific country or the name of a place to know where it’s located; you can also sort the columns differently. Just play with it as you like!
