From sunsets in Santorini to intricate architecture in Rome, the world has so many incredible places to explore. Unfortunately, tourists often won\u2019t be the only visitors.<\/p>\n

Some of the world\u2019s biggest hotspots receive thousands of visitors per day and the world\u2019s busiest destination has a whopping 100 tourists to every local resident.<\/p>\n

Despite this, there are still a few beautiful destinations with barely any tourists. A gorgeous Asian country is one of the world\u2019s least visited spots.<\/p>\n

Bhutan, a small country on the eastern edge of the Himalayas, was once one of the world\u2019s most isolated nations. It opened to tourism in 1974 but still keeps a tight rein on the number of visitors.<\/p>\n

The tiny Asian country charges tourists $100 (\u00a380.74) per day to visit. If that seems like a lot, it\u2019s actually half the previous fee of $200 (\u00a3161.47) per day.<\/p>\n

Bhutan\u2019s hefty visitor fee was designed to prevent overtourism and protect the country\u2019s traditional Buddhist culture. So what will visitors see in Bhutan?<\/p>\n

The country\u2019s top-rated attraction is Paro Taktsang, a sacred Buddhist site perched 3,120m above sea level on the cliffside of the Paro Valley.<\/p>\n

\u2018Michael C\u2019 said: \u201cWorth the long uphill hike for sure! Tiger\u2019s Nest is iconic for good reason. It\u2019s a gorgeous, scenic hike and a temple that really represents much of the Buddhist culture so in evidence in Bhutan.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tourists can also visit Buddha Dordenma, a gigantic Buddha statue in the country\u2019s mountains. The statue houses over 100,000 smaller Buddha statues.<\/p>\n

Visitors need to be part of a tour to visit Bhutan and will need to cover their accommodation and meals on top of the $100 daily fee.<\/p>\n

If Bhutan feels out of the reach, why not explore one of Europe\u2019s least visited countries which even has its own ski resort?<\/p>\n
