If you’re an avid traveler, you’ve likely been to a fair number of attractions you would probably deem “boring.” Maybe you just didn’t like the vibes, maybe the museum everyone raved about is dull as dirt, maybe a world-famous attraction just didn’t offer anything to pique your particular interest.
Whatever the case, you’ve seen boring — but what are the most boring tourist attractions in the world? A new study decided to find out by analyzing more than 66 million Google reviews of more than 3,000 popular tourist attractions to find out which travelers reported were the least interesting.
The study found, when comparing reviews and looking at the ratio of boredom-related keywords found in the reviews to the number of reviews overall, the most boring attraction in the entire world? Branson Scenic Railway in Branson, Missouri.
In fact, the entire top seven most boring attractions in the world are all found in the United States, and also include Illuminarium Atlanta; Jurassic Jungle Boat Ride in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee; Salem Witch Museum; LEGO Discovery Center Atlanta; Adler Planetarium in Chicago, Illinois; and Museum of Science & Industry in Tampa, Florida.
This study was conducted by Solitaired.
