Actually the destinations were ranked by 90 criteria. The 90-strong criteria included infrastructure, safety and sustainable travel initiatives. Culture, accommodation and value for money were also taken into account.
Germany was the third one, and it was above countries like Italy, Japan and the United States, which may surprise people. Japan and the United States was in the list of top five. Yemen came bottom, at number 140. The top 10 countries have remained largely unchanged from last year’s rankings, apart from the UK, which slid from fifth place to sixth. Italy came in at number eight, and Canada at nine.
To create the ranking list, the WEF analyzed four areas of tourism: natural and cultural resources, infrastructure, national travel and tourism policy, and the “enabling environment” (from safety and hygiene to the labor market) .
Austria, whose capital Vienna was named the “most livable city in the world” this month, was ranked 11 overall. It was, however, the top city of “health and hygiene.” As for security, Finland, Iceland and Oman were judged the safest countries. El Salvador, Nigeria and Yemen were ranked the least safe. The US came top in the “human resources and labor market”. Canada was ranked top for air transport infrastructure, and Mexico for natural resources.
