It's really who I spend my time with that makes for good memories. So my interactions with people, especially locals, are quite important to my perception of a place. With every place you visit, your mileage may vary. My views are obviously based just on my experiences.
If you like that kind of stuff you chose the wrong cities to visit. If you wanted lots of interaction with locals you would be better off visiting some smaller coastal cities then 2 biggest cities and one overcrowded turist city.
You would have much better chance to meet locals, hang out with them, eat local food and whatever you like to do.
We had a war not long ago so there are plenty of places you could have visited if thats what you like. Also some places to visit from earlier wars.
We also have lot of roman architecture and other kind of monuments/buildings worth visiting if you like history.
So i think your experience might be bad because of that.
Hope you will have better experience if you decide to visit again
