These ‘alternative’ places are as good as their famous twins. They look the same and have the same historical value. So, if you like traveling and history, visit these free destinations!
The Colosseum, Croatia
The Colosseum in Rome is one of the most famous tourist attractions in the world, but few people know about its twin in Pula, Croatia. The ancient Roman amphitheater in Pula is the only arena in the world with four towers still standing!
Big Ben, Canada
Canadians have their own Big Ben which is very similar to the original one in London. This building is in a neo-gothic style and bears a huge clock tower. Just like Big Ben, but in Ottawa!
Stonehenge, Avebury
At Stonehenge, you can’t touch the stones, you can’t go inside the circle and if it starts raining there isn’t a place you can hide, not to mention the entire visit will cost you a small fortune. But, only 30 kilometers away you can find a very similar setup, that won’t cost you a dime!
Acropolis, Turkey
The ruins of the old city, the remains of ancient theaters, and the pillar temples are always associated with Greece. But Turkey also has something to show. The ancient city of Ephesus has as much historical value as the Acropolis and it’s free to visit any time of the year.
