Great Pyramid of Giza
[ranking: 21]
If you want to see the pyramids up close, your only choice is to join the sprawling crowds that can be made up of up to 5,000 people at a time. That doesn't exactly sound like the romantic Middle Eastern adventure most tourists probably have in mind. More Great Pyramid of Giza

Empire State Building
[ranking: 22]
We're not saying that the ESB isn't a marvel of infrastructure, but we are saying that it's a huge waste of time and that even if you don't bail before you push through thousands of tourists on your way to the viewing center, you're going to give up before you get a chance to look through the paltry amount tower viewers.

Hollywood Walk of Fame
[ranking: 2]
If you go to Los Angeles on vacation, don't go to the Walk of Fame unless you like walking past row after row of car dealerships and abandoned buildings while staring at the ground and looking at hand prints of C-List celebrities from the '40s while fending off buskers, the homeless and people trying to sell you their mix-tape. It also reeks of urine and on warm days it hangs thick in the air and stings the nostrils like opening a sealed case of apples left rotting for a year in a dank cellar. Seriously, Hollywood Blvd. is easily one of the worst places on earth and even if dildos, cheap suits and bongs in the shape of AK-47s are your thing you'll be better served hanging out on Melrose anyway because at least you can go thrift shopping, get a drink at a place that isn't meant to remind you of a Jimmy Buffet song and most importantly, you won't be on Hollywood Blvd.

Avenue of Stars, Hong Kong
[ranking: 13]
Built in 2004, this trap's highlight is a statue of Bruce Lee in a kung fu pose. You'll find mainland Chinese tourists flocking to it in droves if you visit. All in all, it's about as satisfying as a paper cut.
Leaning Tower of Pisa
[ranking: 17]
Isn't it great that such a poorly constructed building is still standing? Now who wants to spend 15 Euros to stand in line to take a picture where it looks like you're the one keeping this landmark from toppling over? Just all of these people? More Leaning Tower of Pisa

Winston Churchill??s Britain at War Experience
[ranking: 12]
This exhibit is basically one big "YAY, WAR!" poster. Every year it draws in thousands of visitors to see a couple fake mannequins, which is a shame considering that several other authentic sites from World War II, including Churchill??s actual bunker, are just around the corner.
