Top 10 Most Underrated Cities In The World

With traveling abroad now becoming easier and cheaper, the world really is your oyster. So rather than heading to cities filled with tourists to spoil your picturesque photos, why not venture somewhere quieter, where you can have a beautiful trip and a great time somewhere slightly off the radar? 

Gdansk, Poland

As one of the oldest cities in not just Poland but Europe, Gdansk has a healthy history culture for you to marvel. With beautiful beaches all along the coast, informative museums and a shopping culture which boasts handmade gifts you couldn’t find anywhere else, this would be a truly remarkable city break.

St. Petersburg, Russia

Known for its interesting architecture and historical feats, this city is definitely anything other than ordinary. By day, you can take photos on the well-kept drawbridges or marvel at the world-famous art collections housed there, showing the likes of Picasso and Monet during the day. By night, indulge in the beautiful skyline from restaurants offering traditional Russian cuisine.

Paro, Bhutan

Known to the world as the only country to have a negative emissions effect on the world, this is truly a place you have to see for yourself. Hike up the mountains to the Tigers Nest monastery or sail down the lakes to take in the traditional architecture of the country. With greenery throughout the whole valley, this town is a peaceful paradise.

Coron, Philippines

With crystal clear blue water surrounding this whole country, many people flock to see the natural wonder for themselves. Coron offers travelers opportunities for some of the best scuba diving and snorkeling in the world with shipwrecks and other underwater treats to discover, not to mention the white sand beaches at every turn.

Faroe Islands, Denmark

Made for the traveler who seeks out greenery and tranquility, this set of islands have only a mere 50,000 people to ensure peace and privacy. Head down to the docks to see the local fisherman at work or stay in nature to discover the natural wonders such as waterfalls and extensive wildlife population.

Copacabana, Bolivia

This little city has a feel of being far away from the whole world. Start your days by hiking up the Morro do Leme hill to get the best view of the town, take a dip in the cobalt blue Lake Titicaca to cool down then head into the city to visit the Cathedral. Not to forget the traditional Bolivian food just waiting to hit your taste buds.

Newfoundland, Canada

Known for its impressive amount of wildlife such as Moose, Black Bears and Caribou’s which are sure to not leave you disappointed. Head out on a boat tour to spot whales, orcas, and dolphins to make a naturists dream come true. The cosy town is home to restaurants ready to show off their freshly caught fish to please all.

Sarande, Albania

This town has once been compared to the Amalfi Coast of Italy. A beautiful, hilly coastline littered with multi-story houses which fit in with the tranquility and peacefulness of the town. Visit the Lekuresi castle, built in 1537 or take out a boat on the sea to relax in the surf.

Leon, Nicaragua 

Wander the streets of this not so well known city to take a relaxing break on one of the beaches or discover the diverse amount of local food on offer while taking in the extensive art history from the revolution. With nightlife to excite even the quietest of introverts, this town really has it all.

Kotor, Montenegro 

As most travelers head to neighbouring Croatia, Montenegro is left with very minimal tourists. With 17th century architecture to explore along with other histories such as the Saint Tryphon’s Cathedral, the old town has something for everyone. To really take in the beauty of this city climb the San Giovanni Fortress to get an (almost) birds-eye view.
