The statue of Portlandia in front of the Portland Building

Powell's Bookstore, the largest bookstore in North America

Pools of vomit

Piles of faeces

A massive aquarium (reportedly the largest in the world), and just next door a museum dedicated solely to Coca Cola. I've been to the aquarium, but have no interest in the Coca Cola Museum.

Damn I screwed that up.

The Beach Boys monument and Space X headquarters

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

The country's ( and maybe the world's) largest gay bathhouse ( 50,000 sq ft).

Berkeley. Need I say more?

Yes. You have to pick!!

The Campanile?

Sather Gste?

Telegraph Ave.?

Top Dog and Chez Panisse?

Greek Theater?

Julian Morgan and Bernard Maybeck?

….

Julia*

Nice work, R18/19. I'd say Chez Panisse and Telegraph Ave.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and The Christmas Story House.

I don't live in town, but this is the reason people visit.

In fact, they call this whole county "horse country."

Birthplace of Elizabeth Hurley

The Bingo Club

Musee Mécanique

Coit Tower

R21 the Campanile and Top Dog. 🌞

R20 the Campanile and Top Dog. 🌞

The Friends exhibit

The Sex and the City cupcake shop

The Strawberry Fields section of the park where Yoko Ono murdered Jim Lemon.

lay off the cocktails

A guy named Jim Lemin was in fact killed inside Central Perk for trying to steal a cupcake.

True story.

The world's largest outdoor chandelier.

Museum of Art.

Tell, don’t show. Get the drift….

R12 We have plenty of that, too!

R3

Fentanyl zombie mentally ill homeless camps, Voodoo Doughnuts, 6 months of rain grey skies and despair, ANTIFA fucks, ... previously known, in better days, as where 20 somethings came to retire. We used to have roses. Pick 2

Pepperpot Playhouse

Ray Lake

Communal enema stalls, not used since mid 19c, but people are still curious.

Identity theft question

It was Jemin from that boy band

r35 gross, what a health hazard

The largest skate park in the US and just outside town this area, just full of covered bridges. It was like a movie was set there.

The Dragon Bridge and the city's main castle. I live next door to one of the smaller castles, actually jog past its portcullis every morning.

[quote]Tell, don’t show. Get the drift

Another boring hall monitor.

You know, I made fun of the Marilyn statue in Palm Springs, but we have the garish sailor kissing nurse giant thing here for some reason. It looked a lot better as black and white vintage photo, and I think it was taken in Brooklyn.

Pasadena or Frisco R33.

Mark Twain House

Leaves turning colors in the fall

Binghamton, r44?

You cunts don't deserve to know my location. 😘💅

Glasgow, Scotland.

The idiotic tradition of putting a traffic cone on the head of the Duke of Wellington’s statue. It started as a student prank decades ago, but it has become a major photo op.

On the other hand, the magnificent museums in the city.

The Berry Festival held every July and The Tulip Festival every autumn. "A City in the Country"

r12 Go Aberdeen!

Duck Boats

Fenway Park

Nothing much really. People generally just pass through here on the way to the more interesting and beautiful parts of the rest of the country, and quite rightly so. Its not a terrible city by any means, and parts are quite attractive but I cant think of any tourist attractions that people specifically come here for from overseas, maybe locally from other parts of the country

If its mediocrity you want though, ours is absolutely world class and second to none. We have the worlds best mediocrity!

Peeps! We make Peeps! 🐤

Much more to add, but this is our most recent honor:

R11, And we have the OLDEST bookstore in America AND the oldest one in continuous business in the WORLD!

It's right across the street from the World Heritage site in r52!

More on Peeps:

National Mall

Capitol Hill

The Duquesne incline

a shitty sandwich with french fries on it

Sports bullshit

Slim pickings. I think the tourists most value 1) staying in a palace hotel and 2) shopping or window shopping at luxury boutiques.

The Jet d'Eau is a marvel but you don't visit it, just enjoy seeing it as you stroll about the city.

Cable cars, Alcatraz Island

Lincoln Center and the Metropolitan museum of Art among many other sites.

Yes, r59. I think OP might have said "No New York, Paris, London" and so on. I mean, come on.

Geez, R31, I guess posters aren't paying attention to your edict.

The Nationality Rooms

A new musical every spring

The Arch

The zoo

Real Alcázar (11thC) - oldest royal Palace sti in use in Europe

La Giralda (12thC tower)

La Plaza de España (1929)

Flamenco

Balboa Park

Gaslamp District

R57 - The Jet D'eau in Geneva is a strange thing - it's not a marvel by any means. Maybe it was when it was first built over 125 years ago, but it's literally just a jet of water going straight up in the lake from a mechanical system they put there. Yet everyone always talks about it. A large fountain in the middle of a lake. Most cities on the water could do the exact same thing - I don't understand why they slap themselves on the back for it. But that's tourist attractions.

Visiting the city council’s fold of Highland Cattle in the country park.

Visiting the 12 century cathedral where “Warrior” Bishop Robert Wishart offered Robert the Bruce absolution after Bruce stabbed John Comyn to death in a church in his diocese. This really appeals to Game of Thrones/Outlander fans.

Sierra Nevada Brewery tours

[quote] Fucking liberty bell and Betsy fucking ross

R10, I stayed in an Airbnb just across from Betsy Ross’s house. I loved that part of the city, such a nice mix of very modern and pretty old. And just pretty in general. I wish I had more time there.

Glasgow here again. I was in the city centre today, and I overheard an American tourist pointing towards the City Chambers, which is the HQ of the local authority.

She said, and I quote, “That must be a church”

Mar-a-Lago

My poosay!

Pike Place market and the Space Needle.

The 2 glory holes at the Ross Dress for Less by courthouse.

Did someone say Balboa?!

1) Southfork Ranch , from a famous 1980s TV show with a catchy instrumental theme song.

2) visiting the spot where President Kennedy was shot.

R31 demands that you name TWO.

The old town

The old port

La Fiesta de Los Vaqueros. It happens in February, a good time to come down and thaw out.

Sea world and the USS Midway Museum.

Old Faithful and cows.

Of the cities mentioned that I haven't visited, I'd like to hear more about the molly and sluts, to avoid it/learn of any discounts.

First in shoes.

First in booze.

Last in the American League.

I don’t live in a city.

Ohio State football

Ohio State football

But down the block is the ice cream parlor where Tony Soprano got whacked.

I’d be hard pressed to come up with a second.

A prison A church

Mountains and trees. Tourists act like they’ve never seen them before.

1) Come visit the birthplace of Jerry Falwell

2) Come take a tour at the world famous headquarters for Fleet Enema Corp.
