Top 10 most-visited cities in the world
Hong Kong has become the most-visited city in the world, attracting 26.6 million visitors in 2017, according to a report released by global market consultancy Euromonitor International.
Every year, Euromonitor releases its Top City Destinations Ranking, a report that ranks 100 of the world's leading cities in terms of tourist arrivals. This year, Asian cities dominated the list, taking four out of the top five spots.
The ranking is based on international tourist arrivals that stay in the country for at least 24 hours and a period less than 12 months. Visit purposes include leisure and business. Domestic tourists, same-day visitors, and people in transit such as cruise passengers are excluded from the ranking.
Let's take a look at the top 10 most visited cities in the world.
