tourism hotspots
Crowded vacation destinations
Tourism hotspots are destinations that attract large numbers of visitors—places where tourists concentrate.
The term often carries a slightly negative connotation, implying overcrowding or commercialization: Venice has become one of Europe's most overwhelmed tourism hotspots.
A hotspot suggests intensity, so these are places where tourist activity runs especially high.
