Attractions after the basics
Attractions should come after visa, payment, booking, and route logic. Use this directory when you are ready to fill a route, not when your trip can still break on setup issues.
Before choosing attractions
Fix the parts that strand visitors first
If your payments, train bookings, or internet access are still unstable, solve those first. Attraction pages work best after the route is already viable.
