I've only been to 12.
A little light on the amusement parks. I've only been to Disneyland and Universal Studios. I don't count Disney World because I never got out of the hotel and into the park. (I went to Cape Canaveral, instead of Epcot and Disney World. Real rockets, space capsules, and rocket scientists beat the heck out of Space Mountain.) But, I did make Disneyland in 1957. And a few more times between 1998 and 2006 to eat at one of the restaurants.

I've been to about 10 of them.
I counted the Lincoln Memorial. I saw it from a distance, but really didn't "visit" it. I also couldn't remember all the Disney theme parks we visited, but I know we did the magic kingdom and something else (I think it may have been the Hollywood Studios, but this was years and years ago, and may have been called something else).
I've never been overseas. I hope to visit some of those places in Europe and possibly China someday.

I've been to 11 - but again, too many Disneys and too many NYC attractions - They should have just put "Disney" and "NYC" once, and added a few other locations from the globe - I didn't see Victoria Falls (Zambia) or the Great Pyramids of Egypt or someplace like Rio De Janeiro on there - or even the Serengeti. or the Haliakala volcano on the island of Maui. Or the tulip fields of the Netherlands. The Imperial Palace of Japan... They're more noteworthy places to visit than amusement parks like the Mouse House - or Universal Studios.
At least New Orleans Bourbon Street made the list.

I got 12. I have no desire to go back to Disney (went to Magic Kingdom as a kid), but I would like to go to Asia. Apparently there is nothing else to see outside of California, New York, and France. I guess I can stop planning trips!

The locations are listed under each pic - if you scroll thru the pics quickly, you can read the locations starting at 50 and working up to 1. Only took me a couple of minutes.

21. Almost halfway there but will never complete it because one Disney is enough for me, thank you very much.

Equating Disney with the British Museum and the Great Wall in China is ridiculous. Yes. Disney is far superior. Ha

We've been to 22 of them and I also agree about too much Disney.

No way I'm clicking through 50 screens while waiting for banner ads to load each time. You can cheat and get down to the bottom (the top rankings) by changing the number in the URL at the top to 50 and hitting Enter.
I agree from what I saw- too much Disney and WAY too much man-made. Times Square, Bourbon Street, the Strip in Las Vegas, both Universal Studios locations, multiple Disneys. I've been to quite a few of them, mostly business travel and conferences (Vegas, for example) but wouldn't return on my own dime.
