Top 10 – The Most Visited US Cities in 2007

14 mars 2008

 

These are the top cities visited by overseas travelers. Excludes visitors from Canada, and Mexico.

 10. Boston, Massachusetts (721,000 Arrivals)
Boston’s appeal on the other side of the Atlantic is timeless. Europeans seem to be fascinated with visiting Boston, & do so in large numbers.

 9. Chicago, Illinois (721,000 Arrivals)
Chicago is  home to the 2nd busiest airport in the world, so it’s no surprise that it makes this list. That & Shy Town has some tourist attractions of its own.

 8. Washington D.C., District of Columbia (901,000 Arrivals)
The American capital, while having had some bad press in the past, is truly a wonderful place to visit. And it seems that the world is finally realizing it.

 7. Las Vegas, Nevada (1.3 Million Arrivals)
Home to the glitz, the glamour, the cheesy, this is Las Vegas. Enough said.

 6. Honolulu, Hawaii (1.6 Million Arrivals)
Honolulu is in Hawaii, & it’s well Hawaii, beautiful beaches, tropical weather, volcanic activity, what more could you want on an island in the middle of the Pacific?

 5. San Francisco, California (1.6 Million Arrivals)
Truly one of the world’s most beautiful cities, San Francisco has long been popular with the international set, as a simple trip up Nob Hill will reveal, all languages, & all foreign travelers are to be found here.

 4. Orlando, Florida (1.8 Million Arrivals)
Disney World is maybe the largest attraction in the world, receiving visitors from every nation on earth. It’s every kid’s paradise, & every adult’s childhood dream.

 3. Miami, Florida (2.2 Million Arrivals)
Proving that Florida isn’t jus Disney World, Miami is ground zero for Europeans on a package-holiday, it seems as if every European has at one time or another taken a vacation package to Miami.

 2. Los Angeles, California (2.2 Million Arrivals)
Maybe the most dreamt of place in the world, it’s no surprise that Los Angeles ranks as high as it does on the international visitor chart. This is where dreams come from, this is where they’re made, this is whey they’re found. And people come from all around the world looking for theirs.

 1. New York City, New York (4 Million Arrivals)
Ahh New York, the least surprising end to any list ever made. New York City has always been the most visited city in the United States by far. This city has direct flights to Azerbaijan for goodness sake, & you know if they have direct flights to Azerbaijan they have direct flights to pretty much everywhere, & hence visitors from everywhere.

    Nous autres français sommes bien égoïstes. Lorsqu’ un gars écrit un blog comme celui-là, il devrait le traduire en français, italien, espagnol, japonnais, chinois etc… que le reste du monde en profite. D ailleurs, l’auteur de ce blog mérite un auditoire bien plus large que 60 millions d internautes (plus quelques belges, suisses, quebecois). En tous cas, j adore tourism to-be et je suis loin d être seul !

    salut joachim, sympa le commentaire ça fait bien plaisir ^^

    mais non vous n’êtes pas égoistes, enfin pas toujours lol. si j’écris ce blog en anglais c’est pour toucher le plus de monde possible, l’anglais reste (malheureusement) la langue universelle, je ne pratique que très peu l’esperanto lol.

    et oui il doit y avoir des belges pami les internautes, au moins un vu que j’en suis un. (j’espère encore pour un ti bout de temps mais c’est pas gagné!)

    enfin encore merci pour les éloges

    Nicolas
