Rubbish tourist attractions: the ‘Narrowest Street In The World’ in Reutlingen, Germany

The Wishing Column in the Hagia Sophia. It's a hole in a column that people stick their fingers in.

It's shit.

The Hundertwasser House in Vienna is one of the ugliest things I’ve ever seen. It kind of looks cute in photos but close up it looks cheap and ugly. Also, Hundertwasser was a hippie twat.

What's "hippy twat" in German?

For Rip-Off value, I'll nominate the Land's End "attraction" ...

The only item of interest to me (excluding the fact that is physically end of the land and there is a lighthouse to look at) was an old lifeboat, and that's gone away ...

I‘d go for “Hippie-Arsch“ as the closest equivalent.

This failed to impress - has anyone else been? And what other famous attractions have failed to impress you?

where i used to work there was something in one of the archive boxes, mr jones's pencil. so i went and looked at it one day, and it was a pencil with a bit of string and a tag. the tag said 'this pencil belonged to mr jones the supervisor and he used it every day of his working life from 1852 to 1899' or similar. only i didn't believe it because it was still six inches long.

47 years, and he managed to get away with doing pretty much fuck all. No wonder they want to celebrate his memory. A true hero of labour.

It's also not actually at Land's End.

That first sentence was my first attempt at the second sentence (trouble with my keyboard), but I thought it had a certain poetic quality, so I left it in.

Smallest house in Great Britain. firstly, I'm sceptical. Secondly, who cares? It's like an extension on that other house, so what?
