穿越了整个世界，大家只为了能和蒙娜丽莎有一个亲密的个人会面，但很多人最后又不得不失望地回来了，因为迎接他们的是成千上万的拿着相机的游客。如果你也有这种体验，你可能不是一个人！世界上一些最受欢迎的景点的照片看起来并不热闹。然而，事实可能恰恰相反。这些景点的高受欢迎程度意味着他们每年吸引成千上万的游客。因此，显然，如果想在这些景点里享受宁静和孤独（或者是拍一张完美的照片发到社交网络上），你可能需要重新考虑你的想法了。看看下面这些对比照片，它们显示了人们对世界上一些最著名的旅游胜地的期望与现实之间的差异。 Traveled halfway across the world to see the Mona Lisa up close and personal but came back disappointed because instead of the famous portrait you were greeted by hordes of people with their cameras? You may not be the only one! Some of the world’s most popular attractions look a picture of calm in their photographs. The truth, however, can be the opposite. Their popularity means that they draw thousands of visitors every year. Obviously, therefore, the idea of enjoying a serene and solitary experience (or taking that perfect Instagram shot) at one of these attractions might have to be reconsidered. Take a look at contrasting photos that show the difference between expectation and reality of some of the world's most famous tourist attractions.

The monument is threatened by pollution that has contributed to the discoloration of its white exterior. 意大利罗马 特莱维喷泉  © Nicola Forenza/Getty Images这座巴洛克式的建筑奇观于1762年完工，是意大利首都最著名的喷泉之一，它在许多著名电影中都有“露面”。 Completed in 1762, the Baroque architectural wonder is one of the most famous fountains of the Italian capital and has been featured in many famous movies.  © Andrea Ronchini/NurPhoto/Getty Images这里的一种流行传统是将硬币投入水中。据说如果你丢一个硬币，你就能回到罗马，扔两个硬币意味着你会和一个迷人的意大利人坠入爱河，而扔三个硬币的人将会和他们接下来遇到的人结婚。因为该习俗的流行，许多游客蜂拥到这里投掷一枚硬币（或者三枚）。每年从喷泉中捞出的硬币总价值约为一百万欧元。 A popular tradition here involves throwing coins into the water. Legend has it that if you throw one coin, you will return to Rome, tossing two coins means you will fall in love with an attractive Italian and those throwing three coins will marry the person they met. Owing to the popularity of the ritual, a lot of tourists crowd the area to throw in a coin (or three!). The total worth of coins fished out of the fountain every year comes to around one million euros. 柬埔寨暹粒 吴哥窟  © Pakawat Thongcharoen/Getty Images吴哥窟是一座古老的寺庙建筑群，位于被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产的吴哥考古公园范围内。 Angkor Wat is an ancient temple complex located within the 155 square miles (400 square kilometers) area of the UNESCO-listed Angkor Archaeological Park.  © Tang Chhin Sothy/AFP/Getty Images金边邮报发布的《吴哥旅游管理计划》称，该景点如此受欢迎，以至于2014年有多达200万游客参观了这座古老的高棉帝国神庙，导致人们开始担忧该景点是否会因巨大的客流量和游客乱抛垃圾导致退化。除了人满为患之外，由于劫掠，非法挖掘和地下埋藏着地雷，直到2004年该遗址仍被联合国教科文组织列为世界濒危遗产。 So popular is the attraction that as many as two million tourists visited the ancient Khmer Empire temple in 2014, leading to concerns about degradation of the site primarily due to congestion and littering, as per a Angkor Tourism Management Plan published by the Phnom Penh Post. Besides overcrowding, the site was in UNESCO’s List of World Heritage in Danger till 2004 because of pillaging, illegal excavations and landmines. 法国巴黎 埃菲尔铁塔  © AndreaAstes/Getty Images这座高1,063英尺（324米）的铁塔建于1889年，以纪念法国大革命100周年。它以其创建者古斯塔夫·埃菲尔的名字命名。 The 1,063-foot (324 meters) tall iron tower was built in 1889 to commemorate the 100th year anniversary of the French revolution. It was named in honor of its creator, Gustave Eiffel.  © Mustafa Yalcin/Anadolu Agency/Getty Images艾菲尔铁塔是世界上参观人数最多的景点，如该地标的官方网站所述，每年约有700万游客前往参观。除了拥挤的人群之外，这座塔还因其受欢迎程度和代表了自豪感的象征意义而面临恐怖威胁。 2018年，防弹玻璃墙在这座安保程度极高的塔外建立了起来，以进行防御。 The Eiffel Tower is the world’s most visited paid attraction with approximately seven million visitors every year, as noted by the official website of the landmark. Besides the overwhelming crowds, the tower also faces terror threats due to its popularity and its status as a symbol of French pride. In 2018, permanent bulletproof glass walls were erected around the highly secured tower for its defense. 法国诺曼底 圣米歇尔山  © Ventura Carmona/Getty Images本笃会修道院坐落在诺曼底海岸的一个岩石小岛上。从公元966年开始，修道院在一千多年的时间内经历了建造，重修和重建。 The Benedictine abbey is perched on a rocky islet off the coast of Normandy.

According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization, nearly 5.4 million visited the site in 2016.

Various studies have warned that since Pisa is a coastal city, one of the biggest threats to the monument is rise in sea level due to climate change. - P) z% g+ l/ [4 D6 z- u
