From the Eiffel Tower in France to Germany's Berlin Wall, most of us are familiar with some of the world's most famous sights. These attractions are culturally significant and easily recognizable. However, each country is also home to more obscure attractions that many might not be aware of.
With so many distinctive countries found all over the world, these hidden gems are everywhere. As we quickly approach summer, has there ever been a better time to get out and explore some of the world's most obscure sights?
To aid tourists in finding the perfect attraction, we at DiscoverCars.com have examined the most popular 'hidden gems' in each country and US state around the world. We've also calculated the price of a rental vehicle picked up at the nearest airport, as well as the time and distance from the airport to each attraction.
We did this to help travelers expand their palette this summer by enabling them to explore less-renowned wonders around the world. There are two rankings, one investigating countries and the other focusing on US states.

Methodology
We have used Atlus Obscura to source attractions (outside of major cities) and recorded the number of people wanting to visit - according to the site. This is the figure we used to eventually rank our obscure attractions.
After recording the attractions, we wanted to find out the cost of renting a car from the airport closest to this attraction (for three days - we used the dates 25th July - 28th July 2023). To do this, we sourced the information from ourselves at DiscoverCars.com.
We also used Google Maps to source the distance and time from the closest airport to each attraction.
To source the price of gas (per liter) in the different countries and US states, we used a few different sources.
For gas prices around the world, we used Global Petrol Prices. For the price of gas in US states, we used AAA Gas Prices.
We excluded any well-known attractions found outside the capital or major cities and instead focused on specifically hidden gems.
We then ranked the countries and US states according to the number of people wanting to visit the hidden gem attractions.
