Whether it’s a trip to the grand canyon, the eiffel tower, or even Disneyland many of us have been tourists ourselves and it isn’t surprising given that the tourism industry world wide generates more than seven and a half trillion dollars annually! With so much money at stake local governments and tourism boards have plenty of incentive to maintain historic buildings, landmarks, and national parks.
Some are stunning, some are educational, and some are downright dangerous, today we are looking at 10 of the most amazing tourist attractions in the world.

10. Great smokey mountains

Along the border of Tennessee and North Carolina lies the majestic Smokie Mountain Range, a sub-range of the Appalachian Mountains that are commonly referred to as the Smokies. As it turns out, the Smokies aren’t actually covered in smoke but rather a thick fog that has become a defining feature of the area. The fog is not your average fog, and actually isn’t low lying cloud cover, instead, it is the result of local vegetation that exhales chemicals with high vapor pressures, without getting too bogged down in the scientist of things, this creates a mist that reminds many visitors of smoke, and speaking of visitors, this iconic tourist attraction draws nearly 12 million people every year! The smokies have even more to offer visitors then just the picturesque fog, in fact they contain several notable spots including the Clingmans Dome which peaks at 6,643 feet.

9. Mont Blanc

The second mountain on our list, Mont Blanc draws even bigger crowds and employs a workforce of nearly 50,000 people. The millions of tourists that flock to this area every year are greeted not only by breathtaking views but also some unique feats of infrastructure. Mont Blanc is home to the Mont Blanc Tunnel, an 11,600 km highway tunnel that runs between Chamonix, Haute-Savoie, France and Courmayeur, Aosta Valley, Italy. The mountain also has a cable car that climbs nearly 1300 feet in 10 minutes. And even if you’ve never heard of Mont Blanc you have likely heard of its parent peak, the infamous Mount Everest. While Mount Everest is likely the most famous mountain nearby, as it turns out mont Blanc is decidedly more deadly, while it is estimated that there are around 200 bodies lost on Mount Everest, Mont blanc claims around 100 lives every year meaning that thousands have lost their lives to the mountain over the years, this number is tragic but it’s a little better when you consider that over 30,000 people have attempted to reach the peak.

8. Louvre

One of the better-known destinations on our list, the Louvre was built in the year 1202, under the orders of Philip II of France, but over the years it gradually changed until it was repurposed as an art museum in 1793. Since then it has gone on to be the world’s most visited art museum, and tourists keep pouring in for good reason, in fact, the Louvre is home to the most astounding collection of art in the world, among the nearly 400,000 pieces displayed there are Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa and over 50,000 relics from ancient Egypt. It should also be noted that the site isn’t only of vital historical significance but it also remains a key contributor to the French economy as well, in fact the museum sees an average of 10.8 million visitors every year, and with each person paying just shy of $20.00 for admission, it adds up pretty quickly!
