Rather than give you a long list of all possible attractions, wikitravel lists only the most popular/must see spots. This saves you time when picking out quality attractions.
Pro Doesn't look like a marketing pitch
Wikitravel, true to the format of Wikipedia, doesn't have ads, and the content isn't worded in a way that makes readers feel like they're being pitched to go somewhere by a travel agency.
Pro Attractions are separated into a variety of categories
It's easy/quick to find the type of attractions that appeal to you most because of the way they are organized. "See", "Do", "Learn", "Buy" etc..
