Some people are impossible to impress. Imagine a person who looks at a 5,000-year-old monument and downplays it as a pile of rocks. Or someone who goes to a castle that was originally built in 1068 and calls it a 'Disneyland wannabe'.

They shouldn't be allowed to visit the United Kingdom. But they're not only traveling to the country, they're trashing it public on Tripadvisor, leaving one-star reviews to some of the world's top attractions.

I just hope they're doing it as a joke, otherwise we have to call the Queen and tell her she needs to sign a few deportation papers ASAP!

The United Kingdom is the 10th biggest tourist destination in the world, with over 37 million visiting the country in 2018. The tourism industry contributed to £213 ($284) billion to the country's GDP in 2017, and this number is expected to grow to £265 ($353) billion by 2028.

Tripadvisor itself describes it as "a country filled with epic landscapes, fairy-tales castles and vibrant modern cities bursting with unforgettable experiences to share. Whether it's gazing at the London skyline from the top of iconic St Paul's and sipping the finest single malt whisky in a pub in the Scottish Highlands, or tracing footsteps of Banksy in Bristol, discovering musical legends in Liverpool and exploring the history of Cardiff Castle in the stunning heart of Wales, there’s a Britain that’s perfect for you."

But don't worry even if you visit the UK just for one night and the only place you go to is the pub. British people tend to find humor everywhere, including dark or bad situations. However, they often use sarcasm and take the occasional stab at someone else’s expense, so it's important not to take these jokes to heart as they are only meant in jest.

To even suggest knocking down Stonehenge for an arcade is unthinkable. But if you're going to replace it with Funfair, I'm in!

A bit over embellished about risking your life having that photo taken. It is a pedestrian crossing and cars are meant to give way.

Not even by the fact that the highest point in the castle is occupied by aa chapel dedicated to those who fought and died in the service for the freedom of Scotland and the rest of the UK?

I love Warwick Castle, it’s a beautiful building and they show you how it was used with displays and mannequins as well as live performances, but the added costs on top of an expensive ticket are ridiculous.

This is actually a decent review. It warns me never to go as I hate super touristy places and I loathe crowds

Happens a lot to me too, at zoos. I used to wave my ticket toward the animals, and yell about having paid admission. They don't care

I think zoos should put up hidden cameras in pens so we can see more natural behaviors and also observe them 24/7 without stressing the animals out.

Some zoos do have live feeds of the enclosures, check your favorite zoo out online, they might have them :)

I work at a zoo human who left this review... screw you. Would you prefer to be in a tiny cage so people could see you or would you rather be able to choose where you go?

I think this person should just choose not to go, the animals look much more appealing on Animal Planet anyway :D

What do you expect? To lock them in tiny cages? That would be HELL for them! I hope you go looking for the lion in the lions' cage and no-one comes to save you! >:(. (Also, no one going to mention they said east over exist? No? Ok then...)

Chester zoo is absolutely amazing. But so are other zoos and I've been to a looooot over the world. To those which are comparable(!), it is overpriced, but still great.

Maybe one should have tossed him/her over the fence to see if the animals are there. Lighten the entertainment a bit.

Never been there but looks like one of those open air safari style zoos. You see what you see and the animals are most likely happy.

What is it with people an wanting historical sites to be destroyed or changed just so they (the people who want this) can enjoy the fact that a historical landmark was ruined for them. Like wtf?!

Do any of these people actually know the history of Stonehenge or do they just think it’s a pile of rocks? Also on a side note, do they offer helicopter tours that fly over Stonehenge? You can see what it is better from an aerial view.
