The awards recognise 43 destinations around the world selected by an algorithm primarily measured by the year-over-year increase in positive TripAdvisor traveller review ratings for accommodations, restaurants and attractions, and increase in booking interest.

This is the fifth year of the awards and Travellers’ Choice Destinations on the Rise list.

The travel planning and booking site in the report revealed that Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, took the top spot for Asia, while the laid-back local scene of San Jose del Cabo in Mexico earned the ranking of number one spot in the world.

“It is also exciting to see an Indian city, Jodhpur, making it to the world list this year, which only reinstates the country’s increasing popularity as a global tourist destination,” TripAdvisor India Country Manager Nikhil Ganju said.

Other cities that featured in the Asia list were El Nido, the Philippines in the second position, Da Lat in Vietnam at number four position followed by Jeju in South Korea, Sapa in Vietnam, Hualien in Taiwan, Kuching, Kota Kinabalu and George Town in Malaysia.
