Which of the European Romance-speaking countries is the most popular? I would like this poll and thread to be especially focused on cultural (including modern popular culture) popularity in the rest of the world: food, language, music, literature and other sorts of art forms (sculpture, paiting, etc.), ancient or modern, are to be taken into account. Just out of curiosity.

Every country has its pros and cons. The one that receives more tourists is France but I think the huge majority goes to Paris, then Italy and if they go a lot to Rome they spread more evenly on numerous interesting and renowned cities. Spain, Greece and Portugal also get a lot of tourists. In Portugal they go to the Algarve and Lisbon and they haven't the slightest idea of the wonders they can see elsewhere. Porto is attracting a lot of tourism too especially because of the low cost companies flying there, the Douro cruises and the wine and food tourism.

Algarve is so overrated. Yes, Porto becoming a Hub for low cost companies is great and has been flourishing the long overdue international tourism over there.

I think it's France. I mean alone Paris is the most visited city in this world by tourists and also the whole culture of french people like Baguette or Crossaints are very popular
