For Chinese and Japanese travelers, Southeast Asia, especially Thailand remains a preferred destination.
Earlier this year, Bangkok was named the most popular destination for Japanese tourists during their Golden Week holidays. The Thai beachside city of Pattaya ranked No. 4 and the Thai island of Phuket ranked No. 10 most popular destinations for Japanese travelers.
Bangkok also bagged the title of “most visited” city in the world for the fourth consecutive year, in spite of growing concerns about the impact of the ongoing U.S.-China trade war on economies and travel across the region.
As per MasterCard’s 2019 Global Destination Cities Index, Bangkok attracted some 22.7 million international visitors, becoming the top destination for global travelers. Paris came second with 19.1 million visitors, followed by London (19.01 million), Dubai (15.93 million) and Singapore (14.67 million).
