5 American Tourist “Traps” that are Actually Worth Visiting

Since we can’t travel, I’ve naturally been thinking constantly about travel. What I have been realizing is that a lot of my favourite places include what most people would call “tourist traps”. If you don’t know, tourist traps are defined as “a crowded place that provides entertainment and things to buy for tourists, often at high prices”, and they are often looked down upon or avoided by the travel community. As someone who doesn’t really love crowds and hates being taken advantage of as a tourist, I totally get that. However, I think there are some great destinations and attractions that get overlooked by people who want to stay off the beaten path. By all means, go out and explore other things, but these are the five American ‘tourist traps’ that I think are worth the visit.
