North Korea has taken up the tourism business in earnest, and some operators are already starting to recruit groups to visit the most closed country in the world. But besides North Korea, there are several other unusual states that have hardly been visited by tourists.
The most non-tourist and little-visited country in the world. It is located in an archipelago of islands in the Pacific Ocean.
Tuvalu belongs to the countries of the fourth world, that is, to the poorest. This is not surprising: after all, it has almost no markets for its products, the economy is exclusively natural and works for the domestic market, and there is an acute shortage of qualified specialists. At the same time, Tuvalu is an incredibly beautiful country that has something to show the traveler.
The most closed country in the world, which has become a byword and an antonym to the words "democracy", "freedom" and "welfare". North Korea is the only country in the world that is not a member of the UN, and the only one that cares so much about its few tourists. All foreigners who have arrived in the country are taken under guardianship by an annoying guide who does not allow a step to step outside the prescribed route.
You might think that the rulers of North Korea deliberately create such a specific image for the country so that tourists go to it. Unfortunately, they do this involuntarily, although the effect of this does not change: those who want to go to the caricatured totalitarian North Korea number in the hundreds of thousands.
Most small state South America has a lot to offer tourists. Except, perhaps, a developed tourist infrastructure. Suriname is surprising in that it has almost no cities and villages in the full sense of the word. Hundreds of kilometers of jungle with the roofs of houses occasionally appearing among the thickets are all that can be seen in Suriname.
At the same time, there is a very rich plant and animal world, an unusual way of life and a peculiar culture local residents. All this is worthy of tourist attention, one has only to close one's eyes to the endless jungle and harsh climatic conditions.
Sealand is definitely the most amazing country in the world. It is located ten kilometers from the coast of Great Britain and was founded in 1967 by retired Major Paddy Roy Bates. This man captured one of the defensive platforms built during the Second World War, and proclaimed himself emperor, and called his land Sealand.
After the creation of the empire, the emperor wrote the constitution. The constitutional monarchy is currently ruled by Prince Michael I Bates. The legal system is based on British law, the state machine is run by several ministries. Almost every citizen of Sealand is a minister or high-ranking official, since the population of the state is only about five people. Most countries do not recognize Sealand as sovereign, although the British authorities consider it an independent state entity.
Today, more and more people choose to spend money on travel, because the emotions of traveling to new cities and areas are priceless and often amazingly unforgettable.

Also in India there are many attractions that are considered objects World Heritage UNESCO: Ajanta cave temples, Ellora cave temples, Taj Mahal, numerous unique churches in the city of Goa, Hampi monuments, Qutub Minar, etc.

And the most famous volcano Indonesia - Krakatau, which is located between the islands of Java and Sumatra. The largest are Rinjani in Lombok and Agun in Bali.
The uniqueness of Bolivia lies in the fact that it can be called the most mountainous country, and in its isolation from the world. No wonder Bolivia is called "America's Tibet". Unfortunately, the exit Pacific Ocean the country lost as a result of the war with Chile, so now it is in the middle of the continent. Here is the highest actual capital - La Paz.
Bolivia is home to the highest navigable lake in the world, Titicaca. Unlike other Latin American countries, most of its population is indigenous, Indians are one of the main Indian tribes of Bolivia.
Its population is over 2 million people. Tourists have a unique opportunity when visiting Bolivia to meet with representatives of this people, who still follow their traditions and customs.
