If you’re into alternative communities, different lifestyles, or just simple living, it might be best to stay away from touristic cities. For those with alternative tastes, visiting the following 20 hippie towns will offer a more immersive experience.

Freetown Christiania is not really a town, it’s actually a neighborhood in Copenhagen. People have been living there since the ‘70s and nowadays it’s one of Copenhagen’s biggest touristic attractions.
