There is a lot to like !I guess I am gradually understanding why France is the most-visited country (at least in Europe). A number of you post incredible images of France.
I have been there, but only once (to date), 'way back in 1987.
By number of international visitors, France is the #1 destination in the World indeed. And it does makes sense, there are a lot of different parts of the country that is worth seeing. In fact, all the countries in the list makes sense, maybe except Austria if you ask meMost visited countries in the world....

Which is more interesting, because if you do the math, which I did, you find that average spending per person is ca $686 when visiting France, which is less than all the other top 5 countries in the list. For reference, average spending per person for people visiting United Arab Emirates is $3108.

Looking across the Chateau Park at Sychrov and its gardens. Since 1945 Sychrov has been under state ownership. Open to the public since 1950. In 1990s, a restoration effort was undertaken with the goal of bringing appearance of the chateau as close to the original look as possible. Since 1995, Sychrov has been protected as a Czech national cultural heritage monument.
