Top 10 best destinations in Thailand
The traveler reviews website TripAdvisor has just announced the winners of its 2013 Travelers’ Choice Destinations awards (by “Travelers” understand travelers using TripAdvisor). Each of their rankings is mostly a marketing campaign to promote their website for ver cheap but still the results are interesting.
At the top of the listing, Paris, the French capital city which still has a fabulous image abroad and takes 1st place lost in the previous ranking back. New-York is 2nd, London 3rd, Bangkok 13th. The Thai capital is not in the world’s best destinations Top 10 but comes first in Asia. The ranking is dominated by western cities, Europe and the United States occupying the top nine places, Sidney is 10th. A result to link to composition of TripAdvisor’s audience which is mostly composed with Europeans and Americans.
