The 10 cities around the world travelers loved the most in 2017

From Las Vegas and New York City to Cancun and Paris, here's where Americans traveled the most last year:

South of the border, the Mexican city of Guadalajara is a treasure for any traveler who wants beautiful weather year round.

London welcomed millions to attractions such as Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey, and Shakespeare's Globe Theater and Warner Bros. Harry Potter Studio tour.
