Turkey is the only country in the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) list that moved up among the top ten rankings from seventh to sixth place in 2011. 

The UNWTO is the United Nations agency responsible for the promotion of responsible, sustainable and universally accessible tourism. Each year it publishes the “Tourism Highlights Edition” and in the 2012 edition, Turkey was the only country able to move up in the top ten rankings. 

In 2010 Turkey registered in seventh spot, but was able to creep up a notch in 2011 to sixth place with 29.3 million visiting tourists. Turkey was able to supersede England on the list and ranked twelfth in terms of tourism receipts. While England ranked one spot behind Turkey in tourist arrivals in seventh place, it also came in seventh in terms of receipts.
