In October in particular, the Booking platform revealed that Paris was the most sought-after destination on its platform for the All Saints holidays.

A trend confirmed by the figures from the Barometer of the Paris Convention and Visitors Bureau, presented last May.

Our neighbors are not left out.

Of the 100 most visited destinations in the world, three countries hold their own. Italy, Spain and Greece thus have the most cities in the ranking: six are therefore Italian (Rome also obtains 5th place), five Spaniards (Madrid is 4th and Barcelona 9th) and four Greeks.

More generally, 40 of the 100 cities designated by Euromonitor are located on the Old Continent, ahead of Asia and America.
