Top 10 Cities in The World For Vacation 2014

-  Istanbul (Turkey)11.6 million visitors

  You'll spot Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman architecture around town. The city of Istanbul is a vibrant mix of many cultures, due in part to its location (straddling Europe and Asia across the Bosphorus Strait) and, well, in part to its history of getting conquered. The Hagia Sophia, for example, was a church, then a mosque and is now a museum.
