2Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona is another city that has been heavily impacted by overtourism. Famous for its architecture, beaches, and vibrant culture, Barcelona receives more than 30 million visitors a year, making life for locals increasingly difficult. 
Crowded streets, noise, and the rising cost of housing have led to protests by residents, many of whom feel they have been pushed out of their own neighborhoods. The rise of short-term rental platforms like Airbnb has contributed to this housing crisis, leading the city to impose regulations on vacation rentals and limit new hotel developments.
