Places worth seeing

Tourist sites are places that attract visitors for their cultural, historical, natural, or recreational interest.

The phrase encompasses monuments, museums, landmarks, beaches, and other destinations that draw travelers: We spent the morning visiting the major tourist sites in Rome.

A tourist site may be world-famous or locally significant, ancient or modern.
