Thailand is Asia’s leading place among European visitors, according to a record by Agoda.

The land was followed by Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia and the Philippines, the online travel agency software found.

Pierre Honne, Agoda’s Thailand Senior Country Director, said that Western tourists search for accommodations in Phuket the most, followed by Bangkok and Krabi.

The three regions stood out for their amusement, experience and cultural sights, which please foreign tourists, especially during the extended summer holidays, he said.

According to Agoda’s figures, Europeans looking for resort deals in Asia increased by 52 % from last year.

Most of them were from the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain and the Netherlands.

According to Mr. Honne, regards to their variety of tourist destinations, including historical sites in Bangkok and Bali’s surfing-worthy beaches, Asian nations were among the most popular holiday destinations for Europeans.
