China is the fourth largest tourist country in the world, so which three countries are the top three?

Spain, the United States and China ranked second to fourth with 54 million, 46 million and 38 million tourists respectively.

However, as far as tourism revenue is concerned, France's tourism revenue in 2005 was 34 billion euros, ranking third only in the world, second only to the United States and Spain. This is mainly because many tourists are only passing through France or staying for a short time.

French industry insiders predict that by 2020, France will receive about 6,543.8 billion tourists, but the title of the first tourist destination country may be lost to China. (End)
