Empire State Building
The Empire State Building is the most famous office building in the world, a signature of the New York skyline. Not to mention, it’s a place where tourists can go up to the 86th-floor observation deck to New York from high up. That is, of course, if you can see through the bars. The pictures you’d find online don’t show the bars that are blocking the view in order to keep the people safe.

Taj Mahal
Another example of a beautiful monument that is so overrated is none other than the Taj Mahal. In order to get a good look at it, or even just see it, you’d have to battle thousands of people. According to the Smithsonian, the Taj Mahal is visited by more than 40,000 people a day, and that number later had to be capped to limit the number of tourists that came through. As many as 70,000 tourists can go there each day. When that amount of people is joining you on your trip to see this monument, it takes away from the experience, in our opinion.
