After a conversation yesterday with an American who tried to convince me that Americans associate Germany only with Berlin and Bavaria (the famous "Lederhosen"-Stereotype), I told him there were other regions worth visiting (like where I'm from) but he wouldn't really listen. I was probably just struck with another example of American ignorance.
My region in the north-east (Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) is definitely underrated compared to South Germany and Berlin. It is the least densely populated area and we have tourists mostly at some better known vacation sites at the Baltic Sea, but very few in the beautiful lake districts and elsewhere.
But it made me wonder which regions/parts of your country are overrated and which underrated in terms of how well they are known and visited by people (both foreigners and countrymen) in relation to what they have to offer for example nature -and culturewise?
