Top 250 Global Attractions - How many have you seen?

cheers, Dmitri

I can only make 51 plus several that are on the list for later this year.

 

[Cool Cat Phil]

I got 107, although I'll have to say that a few of the places are arguably in the same location in reality.
ie, a The Sistine Chapel & The Vatican.
Disappointing that Mt McKinley + Denali NP didn't get a mention, along with the Inside Passage in Alaska, which are spectacular places of natural beauty.
Whistler in Canada didn't get a mention either, nor did any National Park or city in the Eastern Provinces of Canada, such as Algonquin in Ontario or the only walled city in North America, Quebec City.
A little too much of a European focus in that quiz IMO.

Only 19, that said there was quite a few on the list where I've been in the same city or general area as the attraction, but due to scheduling or work commitments I couldn't actually visit.

Edit: I re-ran the test again, but this time including places where I've been in the same general vicinity of, but never stopped and got out of the taxi, and that count went up to 31.

That said, lists like these are hardly a good indication of how worldly a person actually is, as there are way more than 250 attractions which this world has to offer.

 

[blackcat20]

75 apparently for me.

 

[JohnK]

Surprisingly only 31 for me. Could be a few more but I don't recognise or remember every place on the list.

 

[Boca68]

at 107 as well. And a 3 or 4 added by the end of the year with a visit to Japan.

 

[andye]

70 for me
A trip to NYC and Washington DC would up my number a fair bit-not sure how it is I've never been

 

[medhead]

An interesting distraction. 40 under my own power as an adult. 69 including childhood trips. Not sure how paris disney gets in there over the original at Anaheim. Memory is also a bit hazy no doubt there are a few more cathedrals I could've added in, but can't be 100%

The childhood break up was interesting. e.g. I went to the berlin wall when they were still shooting people, I counted the brandenburg gate despite being physically impossible to get to it when I was there. I only saw Vatican options as St Peter's and the Sistine Chapel. Didn't see a general Vatican option

Same as me.

There a few things that should be there but aren't such as the York Minster, Rocky Mountains, Hearst Castle, Easter Island Statues, Bungle Bungles etcetera.

Still I nice piece of click bait to fill a bit of time.

Oh and I was able to click The Little Mermaid having seen it in Shanghai rather than Denmark.

 

[YSSY]

77, I can barely remember most of them. I was in my early twenties when I was travelling the most and regret not spending more time at the landmarks, whereas I mostly made a quick visit for photos and then to the nearest bar...

 

[medhead]

Easter Island Statues,

Aren't those the Moai on the top of the second page?

I assume that I didn't have to actually climb the materhorn to be able to count it.

 

[mole]

70 for me at present, a few more to add this year.

 

[mazcooper]

142 Not too shabby, but still plenty more to go

 

[boomy]

104 in total, 64 visited on my own as adult and 40 with my parents as teenager.

 

[ausfox]

161. Probably cost a couple of thousand each when you look back. Doubt I will reach 200 though. Running out of years.

 

[love_the_life]

I was only 70, but considering I've been to nothing in the US, Canada or the Middle East I suppose not too bad. A few more to cross off this year as well.

 

[Cossie]

153, guess if I went to the east coast of the US it would increase quite a bit, thought it was a little too USA focused. I do like the option where you could vote places, up or down.

[esseeeayeenn]

Only 90 so far.
Never been to the Americas.

 

[NTflyer]

Scored 50, pretty happy with that as have not been to Europe except for Istanbul.
