The Complete Tourist

[Pole, the]

Been to none of these places.

[zompist]

I count 27. Maybe more, since my family took a grand European tour when I was 5, and I'm not sure of a few places we went to. (I'm not sure I remember the trip at all... what with pictures I drew and my Dad's slides and family folklore, anything I remember feels like remembering the memories more than the trip itself.)

The list isn't that exciting, but I'll list the South American ones, which I don't think anyone else has:

Cuzco
Macchu Picchu
Central Lima
Ouro Preto
Rio mountains 'n sea

I think the tango neighborhood in Buenos Aires isn't there, but perhaps should be...

I might be missing some, because I didn't keep track of where I was and stuff when I roadtripped in Europe with my family (once through Netherlands, Belgium and Champagne country, once through the Swiss, Austrian and Italian Alps)

Austria

So I have 26. I'm going on the assumption that nothing I saw in the Alps or that I'm missing from Belgium/Netherlands/Champagne country were on the list.

[Ars Lande]

I get about 27 (I may have overlooked some places in France).

Belgium

• Flemish Béguinages
  La Grand-Place, Brussels

France

• Mont-Saint-Michel and its Bay
  Prehistoric Sites and Decorated Caves of the Vézère Valley
  Place Stanislas, Place de la Carrière and Place d'Alliance in Nancy
  Pont du Gard (Roman Aqueduct)
  Strasbourg – Grande île
  Cathedral of Notre-Dame, Former Abbey of Saint-Rémi and Palace of Tau, Reims
  Paris, Banks of the Seine
  Historic Centre of Avignon: Papal Palace, Episcopal Ensemble and Avignon Bridge
  Historic Site of Lyons
  Routes of Santiago de Compostela in France
  Belfries of Belgium and France
  
  The Loire Valley between Sully-sur-Loire and Chalonnes 9
  Le Havre, the City Rebuilt by Auguste Perret
  Fortifications of Vauban
  Nord-Pas de Calais Mining Basin

Germany

• Palaces and Parks of Potsdam and Berlin
  Museumsinsel (Museum Island), Berlin
  Upper Middle Rhine Valley

Greece

• Acropolis, Athens
  Archaeological Site of Mystras
  Archaeological Sites of Mycenae and Tiryns

Italy

• Historic Centre of Florence
  Piazza del Duomo, Pisa
  Historic Centre of Siena

The Netherlands

• Seventeenth-century canal ring area of Amsterdam inside the Singelgracht

Is it me, or is France seriously overrepresented?
I really wonder how Le Havre gets on the list (it's mostly boring-looking concrete buildings. Sure, the architect is a significant name in the field, but should we include Le Corbusier's ugly suburban housing projects too so we can never demolish the eyesores?).

At the very least I'd add Nafplio in Greece and the Dresden Altstadt in Germany.
The city center of Kopenhagen probably also belongs on the list.

[Qwynegold]

Estonia
Historic Centre (Old Town) of Tallinn

Finland
Fortress of Suomenlinna

Poland
Castle of the Teutonic Order in Malbork

Sweden
Royal Domain of Drottningholm
Birka and Hovgården
Skogskyrkogården
Hanseatic Town of Visby

Thailand
Dong Phayayen-Khao Yai Forest Complex

If I've counted right, there's three of us that have been to Malbork and two to Tallinn.
