If there’s one thing we love more than apps, it’s different cultures. We have a tonne of language games helping people learn languages from all over the world. In this series, we look at some of the locations that fascinated us so much that we created language games for them. They are helpful for students, teachers, and travellers. On the last article of the travel series, we looked at Korea. This time, let’s take a look at the most visited country in the world.
Any guess on what is the most visited country in the world? Here’s a clue: It is hailed as the most romantic place on earth and a perfect destination for a date. I’m pretty sure you know the answer now.
France is the most visited country in the world with over 83 million tourists annually. It is globally the centre of art, science and philosophy with recognition as Europe’s 4th largest number of cultural UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Here are some other reasons why France is the most favourite tourist destination:
French Food
France is known for specialities like croissants, Bayonne Ham, and some unusual but delicious delicacies like frog legs, snails and horse steak which makes the tourists come back for more. Together with the French cuisine is the recognition that this country also has the highest number of Michelin starred restaurants that can guarantee your food trip experience a satisfying and memorable one.
Fine Wines
French foods are partnered with fine vintage wines like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Tempranillo and Chardonnay. These wines are delicately produced by France which makes them the 2nd biggest wine producer in the world.
French Cheese
France has around 450 distinct types of French cheese, and each type has many varieties so there could be around 1000 different types of French cheese you can try.
Architectural Designs
French architecture is one of France’s great accomplishments. Tourists love to witness and come close to the magnificent architectural designs of Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, Arc de Triomphe, the beautiful Palace of Versailles and many other famous monuments, palaces, and cathedrals in France.
Museums
There’s a wide variety of museums in France which are devoted to paintings and sculptures, but if you want to see Mona Lisa, the masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci, then you can visit Musée du Louvre which is one of the largest museums in the world.
Good food, fine wines, amazing architectural designs, great museums, beautiful tourist spots and romantic ambience are all good reasons to visit France. Now, it’s too obvious why it is the most visited country in the world. However, if you’re planning to be one of the millions who travel to France, you may want to partner those good experiences with a better understanding of their language and culture.
