15 cities, the reverse side of which is very different from the usual picture

Going on a trip, we look at travel agencies' brochures, read about our destination on various portals, delight in looking at the magnificent glossy images of magazines and dream of when we finally get to this paradise. But every popular tourist destination has a downside, which only locals know about. Nevertheless, this “side”, as a rule, occupies much more area and is more important in people's lives than the relatively small historical part of the city with sights, so it is definitely worth getting to know it in advance.
