Thailand tops the most instagrammed locations 2013
The most photographed and shared on Instagram place in the world is located in Bangkok . No Grand Palace or Wat Phra Keaw , no, it is the Siam Paragon , the most famous mall in the country . And a little further down in the ranking, is the place that was first in 2012 and this year dropped to 9th position: Suvarnabhumi Airport, the largest airport in Thailand. Bangkok ranks second most instagrammed city in the world behind New York. Thais are among the biggest users of social networks in the world and the largest contributors to Instagram. That partly explains this results.
Anyway the war for popularity and attract tourists will clearly be played on Instagram in the years to come. Tourist Authority of Thailand understood it and regularly organizes contests onInstagram. It is a very effective communication and it costs almost nothing !
