4. Spain: 52.7 million visitors
Spain is one of the most preferred destinations to spend summer holidays and this is quite understood by seeing the number of tourists from British Isles, France, Central Europe and Scandinavia flowing into the nation, during this season. Madrid and Barcelona, the two largest cities in Spain are the leading city destinations in Spain and UNESCO has also declared thirteen Spanish cities as World Heritage cities. The country has some of the best nightlife in the world, which draws both foreigners and locals.

3: I read that India received 6.5 million visitors in 2012.
And China? Hold your breath - the figure is 57 million.
So what's the matter with India?
I believe it is the old story - dirt, disease, disorder.
1. Subodh Kant Sahay (former Tourism Minister) admitted: “Many tourist spots are very unhygienic and the maintenance of these places is very difficult. People ask me:
’Mr Sahay you may speak of the 5,000-year-old history of India, but why is your country so dirty?’” [Tehelka online, 08 Aug 2013]
2. Time magazine reported in Oct 2009 that "110 million households [about 600 million people or 55% of India’s populaton] remain without access to a toilet and ¾ of the country’s surface water is contaminated by human and agri waste. More than a half a million children die each year from preventable water- and sanitation related diseases like diarrhoea, cholera and hepatitis.
Any hope for India?

5: i wonder where that 50 percent is !
I'm a keralite and i am pretty sure that all homes have toilets here.. Had trouble finding public toilets in the state, but the government took necessary action by introducing e-toilets through out the state, which has been a boon especially for ladies. I wonder why the indian government cannot make a move to give awareness for educationally backward states in the country..
