About this puzzle
Tourism rankings look like a simple popularity contest, but the numbers are more about access and infrastructure than beauty. France and Spain have spent decades building rail, airports, and hotel capacity that make short-haul visits easy, while large countries with stricter visa rules fall further down the list than their fame suggests. The ranking measures arrivals, not admiration.
