it's an interesting psychological quirk that we write off as tourist attractions things we would travel to see else where.
I like castles and history and have seen a fair few, but never been into the one on my doorstep. Most Londoners, even those who share my interests express a weird aversion. It's most odd, we live in the best and most interesting city in the country, if not the world, why not explore all it has to offer.

I've done a lot of the more obscure stuff too, and will do more, but avoiding things merely because they are local and popular is perverse.

Yup, well, that seems to cover it nicely.
