Every country has some kind of attraction that gives it it’s claim to fame, some more deserving then others. Even the largest world potato manages to draw a large crowd of people eager to take a look. But there are more interactive, impressive, famous world attractions that can give you something new to experience, and fun to brag about.
Here is a list of 5 of the best world attractions, that you will actually want to see:
5). L’Aquariun de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain


Located at the Port Vell, this aquarium is the perfect place to take the family. The many children’s activities that fill this enormous aquarium (the largest in Europe) will have your kids entertained for hours. The 21 tanks are filled with interesting and exotic marine life, which is education, and interesting, so you will be sure to enjoy the sights as well.
4). The London Dungeon, London, England

One of the most popular tourist attractions in the UK, the London Dungeon is a huge exhibit featuring the macabre and gruesome, and introducing the visitor to the side of England that fairy tales tend to ignore. From the area dedicated to the Great Fire of London, to the room that exposes the horrible acts perpetrated by the infamous Jack the Ripper, anyone with a more morbid sense of interest will be fascinated here.
3). The Peak Tram, Victoria Peak, Hong Kong

A tram system that runs along a route from the Central district of Hong Kong up to Victoria Peak, this railway has been up and running since 1881, when it was built by Alexander Smith, a businessman who owned a hotel located on Victoria Peak. Wanting to offer a more direct route to his establishment, he requested permission to create the Peak Tram, and the rest is history. Tourists and residents now can take the tram several times a day up and down, enjoying the breathtaking view along the way.
2). The Acropolis, Athens, Greece

A collection of three temples, each depicting a difference aspect of the Greek Goddess, Athena, the Acropolis has long since been a focus of awe. Attracting millions of visitors a year, people will tour the temples, and the amphitheaters, taking in the structure of ancient beauty and grace. There is also a museum within these walls, that show off many of the original artifacts once found within.
1). The Eiffel Tower, Paris, France

Long having been considered the greatest symbol of French architecture, the Eiffel Tower will always be one of the most visited, and recognized, structures in the world, as well as one of the most famous attractions. Built by Gustave Eiffel in between 1887 and 1889, this tower features an observation wing that gives the most incredible view of Paris you could ever imagine, drawing millions annually to it’s peak to witness the beauty of this city of love. There are two restaurants that have been added since it’s construction, the Altitude 95, and the Jules Verne, both of which are more then worth a visit.

The Eiffel Tower is definitely an iconic structure and something everyone should see. Not to mention being in Paris which is a city on almost every traveler’s wish-list.

I can see the justification for having the Eiffel Tower and possibly even the Acopolis on this list but the London Dungeon? That place is a fun cheesy tourist attraction but nothing more. Did it pay to get on this list? It is certainly not one of the “top 5 most famous world attractions.” It isn’t even in the top 5 for London. The Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, and the Tate Museum all have far more visitors. Frankly this list has some major oversights or maybe the author had never heard of a little place called Disneyland?
