The Biggest Tourist Trap in the World is 9 Hours From Twin Falls
When it comes to planning a vacation it involves a lot of, well, planning. You have to do your research so that you don’t miss any of the key points or hidden gems in the area when you get to your destination.
Thanks to the power of the internet, we can see reviews and pictures with the click of a button, yet some people are still surprised when they get to a tourist attraction and are disappointed.
World's Biggest Tourist Trap is 9 Hours From Twin Falls
If you are making plans for the summer and are debating between Yellowstone National Park, Zions National Park, or the Four Corners Monument - take Four Corners off your list right now. USA Today and Explored Planet both list the Four Corners Monument as the biggest tourist trap in the world. Reviews of the monument are mixed with 4 stars on Google, but even many positive reviews are critical of the site.

Many say it’s worth visiting if you are in the area and the scenery on the trip is better than the monument. You can expect to spend maybe 20 minutes at the park according to reviews. Also, admission is $8 and National Park passes are not accepted because the park is a Navajo Tribal Park. It also looks like there are more reviews of the vendors at the site than the monument itself.
To give a little credit to the site: at least people are smiling in their pictures at the monument.
