7. Bogotá, Colombia
The capital city of Colombia was once regarded as one of the most violent in the world, and today it still stands as the eighth most dangerous city in the world. Bogotá is ridden with violent crime and drug-related attacks. Terrorist groups and other criminal organizations continue to kidnap and hold civilians, including foreigners, for ransom or as political bargaining chips. The US State Department issued a travel warning earlier this year to inform travelers of the current state of Colombia. If you must travel to Bogotá, do so with extreme caution.
8. Dhaka, Bangladesh
Between the standstill daily traffic, the numbers of vagrants and the horrific air pollution, visitors will feel suffocated in Dhaka. The city’s nearby river is beautiful, but also severely polluted. Dhaka’s political system is highly corrupt and proper healthcare and infrastructure systems are lacking in this capital city. Bangladesh does have the potential to be a tourist-worthy country, but government officials must improve humanitarian concerns and cleanliness standards in Dhaka before we would recommend it.
9. Skegness, England
Once thought of as quaint seaside town in northern England, Skegness is now a pile of dirt bordering the North Sea with a run-down amusement park idly resting on the land. Brits frequent this disappointing town hoping to spend some time at the beach, but traveling to Skegness has become a joke. The town, which appears to be stuck in the past, offers very few attractions for tourists to enjoy and is overpriced. This is one of the worst travel destinations in the world not from a safety standpoint, but you will be let down if you visit.
