The ten most popular destinations for selfies

Tourist attraction website AttractionTix analyzed social media to find mentions of travel hotspots that were combined with the word "selfie" and compiled a list of the most popular destinations (attractions/monuments) for... selfies! The Eiffel Tower in the "city of light" took first place on the list, with over 10,700 posts so far since the beginning of the year.

" Selfies are no longer just acceptable, they are considered a given when travelling to new destinations and visiting landmarks and attractions. It is now considered very natural to take selfies on your travels and share them on social media," AttractionTix consumer marketing director Simon Applebaum told MailOnline. "It was quite interesting to see the Burj Khalifa, one of the world's newest skyscrapers, come in third place among landmarks and attractions with many years of history behind them."
