Santorini
The main thing Santorini is known for is being the best place in the world to see a sunset. This claim has brought countless tourists to the small island. So much so that it’s begun to create a problem. Sunsets are meant to be romantic, but there’s nothing romantic about hundreds to thousands of other people standing with you to watch the sunset. According to the Telegraph, more than 5.5 million people visited Santorini last year, causing traffic jams and overcrowding. Not to mention that water and energy use have both skyrocketed.

Hobbiton, New Zealand
When the Lord of the Rings trilogy was done filming in New Zealand, Peter Jackson left the hobbit homes behind for fans to enjoy. New Zealand has plenty of beautiful places to visit and see, but this movie set is not one of them, it’s simply overrated. The Telegraph said all that stayed behind is the fake door fronts and buildings. It’s really underwhelming as a result.
