A tourist passes Eiffel Tower models in front of Montmartre’s Sacre Coeur Church in Paris, France on Saturday. France, the world’s top tourism destination, attracted less foreign holidaymakers in the second quarter of the year compared to the same period in 2015 as high terror risks and unfavorable weather kept tourists on edge, the national statistics bureau Insee said Friday. In the three months to end-June, the number of nightly stays in France by foreign tourists declined by 8.5 percent from the second quarter in the previous year.SD-Agencies |
