Question of the Day - Tuesday, May 10

[cassiopea]

Greetings! Happy Tuesday everyone!



When it comes to travel, many often talk about what is the most overrated sites or locations to visit and thus not worth going. Let's talk about the opposite. In your opinion....








What famous place IS worth visiting?







The Colosseum, Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius (Do climb to the top!). Yup I enjoyed them immensely! Recommend if you haven't yet

The site of the Battle of Little Bighorn was very moving, ditto Gettysburg. Acropolis by full moon. Worth getting to Kathmandu at sunrise.

The Amtrak train trip from Denver to Salt Lake. You ride up and then literally through the Rocky Mountains, going where there are no roads, just beautiful wilderness. It’s only a half day trip and very inexpensive.

I guess it depends on why you are visiting. For me it was the Dachau Concentration Camp in Germany. I am a history buff and have taste that are a little different, probably would not make most people's list.

Niagara Falls and the Rocky Mountains were 2 places in Canada I really was glad I got to visit, and didn't disappoint.

MoochNNoodles : The Falls are nice, but the Canadian side is better
game misconduct : The Hall is great if you are a hockey fan. I mean, you can get up close and personal with the Cup, after all.
For myself, it would be Athens, and the Acropolis. To actually walk where Plato, Socrates, Pericles, and Alexander the Great walked is something else.

I agree that Pompeii is totally worth it!

Buenos Aires! I wasn't expecting much because it was just a stop on the way to Antarctica (also worth it), but it was beautiful and the food was amazing! Highly recommend!

I was there a long time ago in the 70s. It was a little place, I think they've relocated. It was pretty cool.

Absolutely if anyone gets up that way, go to the Canadian side. It's awesome.

i want to go to see the big ben clock in england and some other places in that country

 

[misty8723]

I've very easily impressed, so I have enjoyed all of our travels.
A couple places I'll mention that come to mind:
The Grand Place in Brussels. You have to see it at night.
CN Tower, Toronto
Crown Jewels in London, Tower of London, London in general was so much fun. I was very impressed with the part of a Roman wall still standing.

 

[neely]

So many places but the ones that comes to mind right now are Provence, France or Tuscany, Italy. I'd love to visit both.

Niagara Falls.

I agree. They are breath taking, especially at night with the beautyfull lights.

I agree. They are breath taking, especially at night with the beautyfull lights.

Too, if you follow the river a few miles north, on the Canadian side, there is the Butterfly Conservatory, where sometimes the butterflies will land on you as you walk through. The floral gardens are quite something, also.

River Walk in San Antonio Texas
Boldt Castle in Alexandria Bay

The Amalfi Coast (I had the best time exploring here over two weeks)
The Great Wall of China
The Forbidden City - Bejing
The Li Jiang river trip - Guilin
