4Amsterdam, Netherlands

Amsterdam has long been a favorite destination for travelers, but its canals and historic buildings are now being overwhelmed by crowds.

The surge of tourists has led to problems such as noise pollution, littering, and rowdy behavior, particularly in areas like the Red Light District. Locals are increasingly frustrated, and the city’s housing market has been disrupted by short-term rentals.
In an effort to curb overtourism, Amsterdam has introduced regulations on vacation rentals, increased taxes on tourists, and shifted its marketing strategy to promote lesser-known parts of the city and surrounding areas.
