This California spot leads list of worst tourist attractions in the world

"Getting your Trinity Audio player ready... What are the worst tourist traps in the world? What attractions live up to the hype? Stasher, a company hooks travelers up with temporary luggage storage, weighs with its blog post, World's Best and Worst Tourist Attractions, Ranked. These rankings were calculated by considering five factors: online ratings, TikTok likes, distance from an airport, the country's safety and quality of local lodging."

"Ergo, Stasher has determined the worst tourist attraction in existence is the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Located 38.1 km from the LAX airport, this sidewalk of celebrity stars had the lowest Google rating and safety score, it writes. Other sites that supposedly suck in terms of a visitor experience include Disneyland Paris and the Dead Sea, dinged for accessibility challenges and regional instability. Conversely, places that scored high include Utah's Bryce Canyon National Park and the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C."

The ranking identified the Hollywood Walk of Fame as the worst attraction due to low Google ratings and a poor safety score and noted its 38.1 km distance from LAX. Other low-ranked sites included the Dead Sea, the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, the Great Wall of China, Victoria Harbour, and Disneyland Paris, cited for accessibility or regional instability. High-ranked attractions included Sagrada Familia, the Colosseum, the Eiffel Tower, Milford Sound, Bryce Canyon, the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, and Walt Disney World.
