In this riveting exposé by Lifestyle Hal, we delve into the chaotic world of Europe's most overrun cities during the summer months. From the medieval charm of Tallinn to the vibrant streets of Dublin and the picturesque canals of Amsterdam, these cities are bursting at the seams with tourists. The narrow cobblestone streets and historic sites become battlegrounds for visitors seeking a slice of European culture, but at what cost? With at least 10 tourists per local resident, the struggle for space is real.
But the madness doesn't stop there. Florence, with its Renaissance art and architectural marvels, finds itself suffocating under the weight of 17 tourists for every resident during peak season. Even the serene landscapes of Iceland are not spared, with Reykjavik hosting 17 tourists per local. The idyllic Roads in Greece, boasting ancient ruins and stunning beaches, sees a staggering 21 tourists per local, making it a challenge to find a quiet spot to soak in the history and natural beauty.
As we move up the ladder of chaos, the medieval gem of Bruges and the iconic Venice come into play. With 21 tourists per local, these cities offer a visual feast for travelers but at the cost of overcrowded streets and canals. Venice's battle with over-tourism reaches a breaking point, leading to strict regulations and a plea for visitors to explore during the quieter months. Finally, the crown for the most overloaded city in Europe goes to Dubrovnik, with a jaw-dropping 36 tourists per local. The Game of Thrones backdrop and orange rooftops may lure you in, but be prepared for a sea of humanity during the summer months.
