The ranking has been revealed by Euromonitor in its Top 100 City Destinations 2019 report using international arrival data for the year of 2018 in conjunction with estimated part-year data for 2019.<\/p>\n
The rest of the top 10 comprises Singapore in fourth with 19.7million visitors and London in fifth with 19.5million visitors.<\/p>\n
Paris is in sixth place with 19.1million visitors and Dubai is seventh with 16.3million visitors.<\/p>\n
Rounding out the top 10 are Delhi (eighth, 15.2million visitors), Istanbul (ninth, 14.7million visitors) and Kuala Lumpur (10th, 14.1million visitors).<\/p>\n
The report explains that 11th-place New York is still the most popular urban city destination in the U.S but ‘requires massive infrastructure improvements and increased availability of affordable lodging’.<\/p>\n
It says: ‘The number of short-term rentals has been growing rapidly but a proposed law aiming to curb the explosion of short-term rental listings may put off millennials.’<\/p>\n

Macau in China, pictured, takes third place on the most-visited cities list for 2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
In addition, it notes that as ‘trade tensions escalate between the U.S. and China’, arrivals to New York from China are expected to decline. <\/p>\n
Top-ranked Hong Kong’s ability to attract international arrivals is down to ‘its proximity to China, vibrant shopping scene and strong cultural heritage’, the report says.<\/p>\n
More than 50 per cent of all visitors to Hong Kong come from mainland China. The report says the completion of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau bridge as well as the commissioning of the high-speed rail link connecting Hong Kong to Shenzhen and Guangzhou have led to ‘consistent growth in arrivals from China’.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, fifth-placed London is still the most-visited city in Europe but the report warns that Paris ‘aims to capitalise on the emerging opportunity Brexit creates, not only in terms of leisure tourism but also business travel’.<\/p>\n
