This Online Community Shares The 41 Most Boring Cities They’ve Traveled To

It seems about as gimmicky as Las Vegas, but with way less fun to be had and no bright lights.

I live in Dubai since 2016, if you don't know anything about the city it is not the city's problem 😅😅 Dubai has amazing places to visit and enjoy, nature here is really different and beautiful Did you go to Hatta? The mountains? The valleys? The beaches? Or you just got stuck in Burj Khalifa and the artificial world?

I lived there for 3 months.. Too artificial and superficial for me!

I live a mile from Pike Market. If that's all you got from visiting I'm sorry. So many cool museums, lakes, the views, the underground tour, the music, restaurants, hikes within an hours drive.

Oh really well f**k you too ig you're one of the god damn tourists who clogs up pike place all the f*****g time maybe go into actual f*****g Seattle instead of only looking at the place that was built for idiots like you? It's one of the best places in the USA, and honestly that may be in part because people like OP aren't here. If you insist on being touristy, pike place is aesthetic af and really nice to go to (everything is overpriced, just look and don't buy), Seward Park is gorgeous, especially in the summer, there are streets full of small shops that are all independently owned and really cool, and it's generally an amazing place. F**k op, visit seattle

Sounds like someone who's never been to Seattle. He'll I've never been to Seattle and know the Space Needle is actually the most well known thing about it and that's pretty damn cool wish heights didn't make me panic to the point I lay on the ground and become immobilized. Usually in the elevator ride up so very easy to get me back to ground without emergency intervention

Love all the people jumping on this to defend Seattle! I lived near there for 20 years then lived there for 5 years and it's a great place.

I used to live there and can understand the comment. The city isn't well laid out for tourism. The fish market area is a large collection of shops and restaurants. If you like seafood, there are good places along the waterfront and north of downtown. There are many live music bars scattered around the city. The World's Fairgrounds, with the Space Needle shown in the picture also has the Experience Music Museum, now called the Museum of Pop Culture. Covid-19 killed a boat trip to a Native American live exhibition known as Tillicum Excursion on the Blake Island state park, but it may return. You can rent canoes at the University of Washington waterfront activities center and paddle over to the Arboretum. In summer, the Seafair event includes hydroplane races and airshows. The Seattle Film Festival is a week-long event worth attending. The Bite of Seattle is a fun food event where local restaurants have small samplers of their popular items for sale. The International District has restaurants and shops.

Yeah, the whole point of The Office being in Scranton is that Scranton is just kinda bleh. It's small and uneventful. The episode Tallahassee highlights this by everyone treating freaking TALLAHASSEE like they're going to Vegas.

I think if you are truly an office fan or even watch one episode you should know that the office WAS the most interesting part of Scranton. It would be a good stop on the way to somewhere but I haven't

Well duh it's a tiny depressed coal city in the mountains....what did you think you were getting?

Actually been to downtown Scranton about 20 odd years ago for work. Built a jewelry store. Stayed a week. Thought it was charming. It was in the October peak foliage time and was beautiful in the mountains/hills. People were very friendly.

Must be the worst place in the UK for roundabouts. They are everywhere.

Never been so can't comment on what it's like. If it has "no to little feeling of community or culture" it's probably because it was essentially artificially created. Interesting places grow up organically, in my opinion.

Southern Maryland is the most soulless place on earth in my opinion.

yea i hate houston

There are 19 museums in Houston, visit one of those. Go to Mid-Town, the Montrose Area, the Heights, Buffalo Bayou. There are a lot of neat little shops and great restaurants. Houston is amazing. I agree about the sprawl, it is incredible. But it sounds like you didn't go to the right places. Get on the train and explore Houston, You have to visit the Museum District. Houston is very diverse and you can find any kind of food there. All kinds of festivals. You can find one most weekends. In February there is the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. You have to see that at least once. There is also an Art Car Parade, Wings over Houston, Lunar Rendevouz (Balloon festival), and so many more.

That's exactly what I feel about Stockholm. Lived there for 15 years. Pretty but boring.

I also found Helsinki really boring.

Wasn't Orlando the city with the McDonalds which had the biggest indoor playground?

Gonna be in Orlando next week. Not even for Disney! I'll let you know.

Agree it's an Indiana sized city which isn't saying much but has an acclaimed Children's Museum, several Museums and parks downtown. The Monon trail runs through interesting places with lots of restaurants (rail converted to trails). Be aware on the 465 interstate, the speed limit is 55 mph but everyone drives 80+ so keep up with traffic and ignore the signs unless you see a cop.

I was impressed with the airport but the amount of 'honor our military' signs, services and special zones was weird & jarring.

There used to be a great radio station out of Dallas. RIP 94.5, The Edge.

I lived there for a couple of years for work and I was reticent about being there at first. I did grow to like it within that time though. DART is great, love love love the light rail system - wish San Antonio had one. The Arboretum is awesome and the Kadampa Buddhist Temples were an amazing resource for me. Large selection of vegetarian restaurants of different nationalities. Not as expensive to live there as Austin.

Jax is one of my least favorite cities in the US, but this is a ridiculous review of it. I don't know many cities that can accommodate 700 people, surely that's a typo.

At the Science Museum I got to pet a snake named Elvis.

The most exciting part is finding out your catalytic converter was stolen.

The best part about Albuquerque is that Santa Fe, Taos, Pecos, and so much more are just down the road.

I only go for the snowboarding.

There's a great zoo. It's a great city for families, and college students.

Bob and Gail Redfern live there so avoid it like the plague. Biggest a******s you'll ever meet. So yeah. Avoid like the plague.

Brussels is a complex city, even for us locals. You need a Brusseleir by your side and the motivation to walk. There's a rich cultural life and lots of beautiful parks and interesting architecture, if that's your thing. Also lots of beer and chocolate of course. The city's progress suffers under a complicated political system (it's a mess, really), definitely compared to other cities like Antwerp, but it's always in movement and we're a multicultural bunch, so you should meet some people you like.

I have been to Brussels a few times and always had a poor time. There just wasn't anything... FUN.

There's a university in Toledo, and you couldn't find a bar with a pool table??? OP never looked.

THAT'S TOLEDO, SPAIN ! emoji-6497...88357a.png
