Would you consider your town "touristy"

[Brad]

I know that the city that I live in does not really have much to offer in terms of tourists attractions. It's usually just a pitstop to gras fuel and a snack and then continue on their journey.
Is the town/city you're from directed towards tourist?

[lawrawrrr]

London? Nah, not at all ;)


Hahahaha yeah massively, but my little bit of it isn't touristy at ALL, very much residential & not many attractions on offer at all

Oh absolutely. I live in Cambridge so we get droves of tourists in and out to see the main attractions (the main colleges, corpus christi clock, the market square, jesus green, some of the parks in the town centre) but I live in the suburbs so there's never any reason for tourists to come out this far unless they've been taken to hospital for some reason [emoji14]

[Cerys]

Tbh before I always thought nah why would anyone come to leeds what's there to do here ?!?!?!
But since spending a large percentage of last year at the airport it made me realise just how many people fly into leeds. Like if a flight comes in and I happen to get on the same bus home as the tourists it's insane, they're all taking photos it's like browse that's a tree why is that special stop it !!!

So yeah I do think now definitely in terms of foreign tourism that leeds is popular, but I wouldn't say other people from UK specifically come to leeds for a holiday

[Nick]

yes very touristy

[lemons]

well i live in the london suburbs so no but we do have the worlds first atm machine :)

[welshcake]

Aberystwyth is very touristy around holiday times
Not much to do here really but people like a seaside town

[Absently]

yeah very much so! dunno why people love it so much here it sucks

[Mikey]

Yes Glasgow is very touristy, especially around this time of year. A lot of the tourists are lovely :)

[j0rd]

Not at all. I mean bless the council, they really try. "we've got mima [art gallery] and the Transporter Bridge [bridge that moves... but is always closed for repairs]." Funnily enough, a couple of days ago, I did see a chinese couple with one of those touristy cameras taking pictures at half 6 in the morning and I'm just thinking wtf are you doing.

[Gina]

well we have a theme park so i'd assume so with and another being a 25 minute drive away

[RuthOnToast]

couldn't think why anyone would want to come to rotherham unless you live there well i did see a couple walking around my village who was visiting there but i think they were visiting family
Might get people visiting Sheffield but i think most the people there are students

[Chris]

Yeah I would say so. The place I live now and where I'm from both have very historical attractions which attracts tourists.

[-:Undertaker:-]

Liverpool is quite touristy nowadays, yeah.

Tuk tuks, tourist gift shops... we always have absolutely LOADS of Spanish and Italians shopping in huge groups. Hotels springing up all the time.

[Sixtiess]

Not at all.

[Lucy]

I live near Perth, Australia. I would never recommend someone visit Perth itself as a tourist as you would be done by the end of the first day, you would also be broke.

[Zak]

No I live in a hamlet so it's not in any way geared towards tourism

[Samantha]

They might just come for The Chuckle Brothers :P.

Where I live no, unless people really want to see the Haribo Factory lmao.

Well, if you are an UFC aficionado you might know something about Anderson "Spider" Silva: Curitiba's his and my hometown
It's a well known place (they say it's the European side of Brazil due to the low, snow-free temperatures), we have a special passion for nature and you would notice this by every step you take there, by seeing the trees, the trash cans, the historic buildings, it's heaven
so yeah hahah

[JasonLeeKelk]

were i live its crap although they are doing a remake over of my local town so in way yeah and in a way no

[Matt]

pretty much agree with this.

Although if you like a laid back kinda life and have never been to Perth or Australia, I guess we have nice beaches and the weather isn't bad so I'd say it is kinda touristy (just there's definitely a lot better places to visit).

[Shar]

Yes and I'm a nightmare on the tube on the way to work. Watch out for my rucksack.

[despect]

Well I live in London and we have a few museums and night clubs etc so that side is kinda touristy my town no way unless you wanna get stabbed or whatever then sure why not!

[hungryfront]

Telford itself isn't but little villages/towns like Ironbridge inside/outside it are (Telford is a "new town" which used to be loads of different towns and villages before the 70's, and nobody is really sure which towns are in or out of it), but mainly for day trips because there's not many hotels.

Yeah I live In Bridlington its like right next to Scarborough so in summer hugely targeted at tourists. We have all the cheap beach tat shops and so many b&b's

[Yupt]

People don't come on holiday to Cheltenham lol but a fair amount of the bars etc survive off people visiting for the horse racing, especially the gold cup so I guess so.

[cammiee.]

i live in devon and a lot of tourists come here in the summer, especially where i live but in the winter it's pretty much dead everywhere

[nat965]

Not as much as other capital cities in Australia. All the theme parks are down the coast a little, so not much in the CBD area really.
