On the other hand there&#8217;s still hidden gems all over the world which very well can compete with these iconic places. Problem with their article: <em><strong>There was no map!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The article featured a curated listed of these hidden gems under the headline 40 Alternative Travel Destinations.

Twice actually, contributing to the overtourism here. But woah, it&#8217;s so freakin&#8217; beautiful. I gotta try Lichtenstein now. Neuschwanstein really is crowded with 1.5+ million visitors every year. Unlike some other destinations on this list, this is not a city, but just one castle. At this rate an average of 4100 people see it every day. Do the math: Even if this were evenly distributed over the year, even if they&#8217;d be open from 8:00 to 20:00, it&#8217;d be around 350 people every hour!<\/p>\n<p>Stonehenge &#8212; Pretty much similar <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/586843\/stonehenge-visitor-numbers-united-kingdom-uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1.5 million figures<\/a> for this Southern English jewel. The list instead recommends D\u00fan Aonghasa in Ireland. It might indeed be really cool, but the difference in accessibility is just tremendous: Stonehenge basically has it&#8217;s own motorway exit, whilst D\u00fan Aonghasa is on the Iron Islands, pardon me, Arran Islands close off the Irish west coast.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Let me know what you think of the list.
