[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We lived in Europe for 5 years and traveled a lot. I don’t think one should equate “touristy” with “overrated.” Many places are overwhelming in the high season but that doesn’t mean they aren’t wonderful destinations.

The only place in Europe anyone mentioned that I think is actually overrated is Brussels. Apart from the Grand Place, the city is pretty ordinary compared with other European cities. The smaller Belgian cities Ghent, Antwerp, Bruges more interesting imo.

Naples not overrated (don’t think generally it’s a highly regarded tourist destination) but another place we didn’t think was worth our time and no need to return. Don’t understand the appeal. We loved every other place we went in Italy. [/quote]

You didn't like the pizza? The pastries? The seafood pastas? The archeological museum? Capidemonte museum? The churches and monasteries? The old city center? Access to Pompeii? Bay of Naples? City views from the hills?  [/quote]

Italy-mos are the worst. Naples is a crap hole [/quote]

I'm genuinely curious why people say this. I can understand not liking noise and crowds and seeing trash. But there's a lot to see and do and eat in Naples the setting along the bay is spectacular. Crap hole is pretty strong language to use. We were just there last month and enjoyed ourselves greatly. [/quote]
