Rome is the third most popular destination in the world for tourists. This is what the TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards 2019 say, which puts two other famous European cities on the podium.
London and Paris hold the gold and silver medals respectively. Along with the traditional tourist spots such as parks, museums and places related to the Royal Family, The City stands out as a must-visit area as Brexit continues to frighten travellers around the world.
The English capital is followed by the Ville Lumière, Paris being a classic destination for lovers from all over the world. In third place, the Italian capital continues to maintain its supremacy as the city most loved by visitors not only on a European level, but globally.
Italy also stands on the podium in other rankings: in gastronomy, for example, the Villa Crespi restaurant in Orta San Giulio, owned by chef Antonino Cannavacciuolo, comes in third place among the best restaurants in the world according to TripAdvisor. In terms of top hotels, the second most popular location in the world is the Hotel Belevedere in Riccione.
