'Just a concrete pillar': World's greatest sights given ONE-STAR Tripadvisor reviews
THEY may be the world's most iconic sights - but as the old saying goes, you can't please everyone.
Tripadvisor users have blasted some of the world's most famous sights
Tripadvisor users have been handing out hilarious one-line reviews for some of the globe's most famous tourist attractions.
Jaw-dropping locations like the Grand Canyon and Niagra Falls have been panned in scathing comments on the travel website.
One user slammed Brazil's famous Christ the Redeemer statue, which stands at an incredible 125ft tall, as "just a concrete pillar".
While another globe-trotter blasted the ancient pyramids of Giza in Egypt as a "horrendous".
He wrote: "The pyramids are nice to look at and are definitely something to see, however that is if you can see past the dying/dead horses and dogs, and people harassing you for money on camels, coupled with overweight brits wearing see through leggings."
The Grand Canyon was described as a "sandy ditch" by one Tripadvisor user
I've been to a number of so called landmarks in my time - but what the hell was this? Just an overblown sandy ditch
A Tripadvisor user also criticised the Grand Canyon, one of the most famous attractions in America, and said it showed "nature is crap".
The man wrote: "I've been to a number of so called landmarks in my time - but what the hell was this? Just an overblown sandy ditch."
British attractions did not fare much better with one reviewer calling Big Ben, one of the most famous sights in London, as just a "big clock".
While another described the stunning Angel of the North sculpture in Gateshead as "RUSTY JUNK".
The world famous British Museum, which has a huge collection of art and artefacts, was also given a one-star review and branded as "coma inducing".
Tripadvisor users gave one-star reviews to attractions like the Eiffel Tower and Buckingham Palace
The royal residence of Buckingham Palace was also slammed by one reviewer as a "quintessential tourist trap".
While one visitor said the Colosseum in Rome was "nothing special" and another described Paris' Eiffel Tower as "ugly".
Other attractions given scathing reviews on Tripadvisor include India's Taj Mahal palace and Times Square in New York.
