Top 10 Most Hazardous and Dangerous Countries for Travelers in the World!
#2 – Somalia
© PressenzaThis is one of the most hazardous countries that every tourist needs to avoid. If you only do a quick search on the internet, you’ll find plenty of movies, documentaries, and news demonstrating how dangerous can Somalia be for foreigners and locals too.
The Somalian coasts are particularly risky due to widespread piracy, in addition to attacks, killings, and starvation. Moreover, the country is critically unstable, witnessing regular bombings, murders, kidnapping, and illegal blockage of various roads. May God guard the poor locals’ souls!
Surprised you did not mention the Maldives. It remains safe if you are part of ISIS and that’s about it~
Do u guyz ever visit India or Pakistan…
Wow. Can’t believe Russia was on the list. We spent six weeks on our 50th anniversary traveling from St. Petersburg to Vladivostok. People, without exception, were extremely friendly. Of course, you always need to be aware of your surroundings, domestic or otherwise. Moscow; exceptionally clean, no graffiti, almost need reservations to get into McDonalds. St. Petersburg is beautiful and a “go back to” city!
There is an island in Thailand which is very beautiful and is a massive magnet to the young. However there have been many unexplained deaths in the last few years which the police seem hell bent on covering up, mainly to protect the tourist trade.This island KOH TAO has become very dangerous indeed. Tell your kids to stay away.
Israel should have been #1.
A very biased and false dramatization of the situation of Pakistan. Do you have any figures of the tourists killed in any of the terrorist attacks in Pakistan? According to my knowledge at least none in last 5 years. As far as your question as to why someone would like to visit this country, out of many valid reasons I would only enlist a few.
1. It has the second highest mountain of the world.
2. Hosts 5 of the 8 above 8000 meter peaks in the world.
3. Meeting point of 3 most well known mountain ranges i.e. Hindukush, Karakoram and Himalayas.
4. Has the ruins of the earliest civilizations of the world at Mohenjodaro, Harappa and Taxila.
I could keep going on but for anyone to be convinced as to whether it’s worth taking a risk, the above few reasons should be enough.
