    I think Barcelona,Gdansk(not sure),Dubrovnik,Zurich and Istanbul are the most visited cities in these countries

    I understand going to the beach in Spain and Croatia, going to Istanbul in Turkey, and going to Geneva and Lake Como in Switzerland, but what’s the hot tourism destination in Poland outside of Warsaw?

  4. As a German I’m surprised Berlin wins out over Munich, Hamburg, Cologne.

    Who visits Berlin voluntarily?

    I’m pretty surprised by Germany. I would have thought Munich would be higher than Berlin on most people’s lists.

  6. US would have so many red states. You know how many people think the capital of Michigan is Detroit?

  7. Blags my head that people travel to England and spend most (or all) of their time in London.

  8. I wonder why would anyone in their right mind even consider going to Moldova, let alone other cities beyond Chisinau….

    Super interesting. Us states vs capital cities would likely be opposite these colors.

  10. Having been to Barcelona many many times, can confirm. Although Sevilla is 100x better of a trip and visit IMO.

  11. Everybody here is talking about the red countries, but a few blue ones surprise me where I expect most tourists go to the beach rather than the capital city, like Cyprus and Albania

    Heard very few English speakers in Warsaw, but lots of Brits in Krakow, was honestly surprising Warsaw was great.

    Iceland… Maybe people go there mostly for the nature but as per cities I am sure the capital get the most visitors. I think the second largest “city” is 25,000 inhabitants

  14. I personally prefer Madrid to Barcelona. I have no desire to return except if I have to, to take a cruise in the future. Heck, I’d go back to Burgos or the Santander area over Barcelona.

  15. In my 20s, I loved Barcelona. Now that I’m in my 30s, I much prefer Madrid. Such an incredible city. I’m happy that more of the tourists go to Barcelona than Madrid, leaves more room for me (to be a tourist there) haha

  16. Swiss here: No one GAF about Berne. It’s pretty but that’s it. Zurich and Geneva it’s where it’s at.
