最吸引旅遊者的十大城市 第1竟然是？
The Thai capital has bounced to the top of an annual list of the world's most popular travel destinations after spending several years in the wilderness (of second place).
在最新發布的年度最受歡迎旅遊目的地榜單上，泰國首都曼谷重回首位。此前數年曼谷一直徘徊在榜單第二名。
Its return to the throne came at a cost to London which, after occupying pole position for two years, is trading places with its Asian rival.
曼谷重回首位，而付出代價的是倫敦。倫敦在連續兩年佔據榜首後，與其亞洲對手城市交換了位置。
Bangkok is projected to host 21.47 million "international overnight visitors" this year, according to the 2016 report by financial services corporation MasterCard.
萬事達金融服務公司公佈的2016年度報告顯示，據預測，曼谷今年將接待2147萬國際遊客。
That figure is more than two times the city's population of about 10 million.
這一數字是曼谷市人口（1000萬）的兩倍多。
Bangkok's 2014-15 fall from the top was largely put down to political instability in recent years.
曼谷在2014-15年排行下降主要是由於近年來的政治不穩定。
But there's no escaping Bangkok's allure: a vibrant urban and culinary scene and proximity to some of the world's most beautiful beaches and islands.
但曼谷的吸引力也顯而易見：充滿生機、食物美味、毗鄰一些世界上最美的海灘和島嶼。
London, meanwhile, is expected to welcome 18.88 million visitors this year.
而倫敦預計今年將接待1888萬名遊客。
Paris is in third place with 18.03 million forecast visitors.
巴黎排行第三，預計接待遊客1803萬人。
MasterCard says its index reflects theinterconnectedness of major global cities and tracks the ways in which business and leisure jet-setters spend their money.
萬事達公司表示，其數據反映出世界主要大城市的互聯性，並追蹤了商務和休閒飛機乘客的消費方式。
Ranked fourth with 15.27 million visitors, Dubai "made a quantum leap to become the global top-ranked" in visitor spending, the report says.
報告稱，迪拜排名第四，預計接待遊客1527萬人，“突飛猛進，成爲全球旅遊消費最高的城市”。
Based on a new estimate provided by the government of Dubai, its visitor pending of $31.3 billion this year far exceeds London's estimated $19.8 billion, which comes second.
根據迪拜政府的最新預測，在迪拜旅遊的遊客今年將消費313億美元，遠遠超過倫敦遊客消費的198億美元。倫敦在遊客消費榜單中排名第二。
The report also ranks the top 20 fastest-growing cities between 2009 and 2016, with Japan's Osaka topping the charts with a 24.15% annual growth rate over those seven years, followed by Chengdu in China's Sichuan province at 20.14%, and Abu Dhabi at 19.81%.
