Summary: | International tourism is the most dynamic component of tourism circulation.
According to prognoses, the number of tourists worldwide is steadily increasing in
2008, after the record year 2007, despite economic uncertainties. In 2007, there
have been 898,000,000 tourists that took trips to certain areas of the world, with
6.2% more tourists than in 2006. The main tourism destinations were France and
Spain, but as far as international tourism circulation per regions is concerned, the
most considerable growth compared to 2006 was that of the Middle East (13.4%),
followed by Central America (11.1%) and Africa (7.9%). Europe has a growth of
only 4.2% in 2007, compared to the reference year 2006, but despite all this, it still
ranks first from the point of view of the total number of visitors (480,100,000
tourists), which recommends it as a main cultural destination worldwide. |
