Holidu published a ranking of the most visited tourist destinations in 2023. The Croatian resort city of Dubrovnik topped the ranking, with 36 tourists for every local resident.

This summer season, travellers are actively bringing tourism back after the prolonged pandemic. As a result, many cities have huge crowds of visitors, creating traffic jams, excessive noise and rising housing prices.

Second place went to Venice, Italy, with 21 tourists for every local resident. Bruges, Belgium, and Rhodes, Greece, have the same ratio — 21 tourists for every resident. In Reykjavík, the capital of Iceland, there are 16 tourists.
