Au revoir! Istanbul and Rome knock Paris and New York off top spots of 10 best destinations in the world (and London scoops third place)

Փարիզ

 

Paris has been knocked off the number one spot of the world’s top destination – with Istanbul now firmly in first place.

Despite announcing record tourist figures for 2013, the French capital lost out to Turkey, dropping to seventh in this year’s Travellers’ Choice Destinations awards, voted for by millions of holidaymakers.

A newcomer to the top 10, Istanbul swooped in to the number one position, just ahead of Rome, which itself rose two places from fourth last year.

New York was gazumped by Rome from second place, falling out of the top 10 of the TripAdvisor list to number 12, figures released today show.

However, London managed to retain the same position as last year, holding fast to its title as the third best destination in the world.

This year’s fourth place in the world’s top destinations awards went to China’s Beijing, followed by the Czech Republic’s Prague to make up the top five.
