The World Travel Awards is globally recognized as one of the highest honors in the travel industry. Established in 1993, its goal is to select the best travel destinations, hotels, airlines, and tourism enterprises through votes from over 200,000 travel industry professionals and travelers worldwide.
The World Travel Awards aims to acknowledge and reward excellence across all sectors of the global travel industry. The annual gala attracts numerous elites from the tourism sector. The award is hailed as the "Oscars" of the industry and is recognized globally as the ultimate hallmark of industry excellence in products and services.
This year, Portugal received a total of 16 awards at the World Travel Awards, a historic achievement compared to the 7 awards received in 2017 and 4 in 2016.
Meanwhile, in a recent report by CNN, Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, was listed as one of the seventeen must-visit European destinations. Its cuisine is a highlight of the city, making it a mandatory stop for food lovers.
Over the past three years, international recognition of Portugal has been steadily rising. Since 2015, the number of international reports about Portugal has increased by 107%. Across Europe, Portugal is attracting more and more people to live and invest due to its unique charm.
World Immigration experts state that Portugal's beautiful scenery makes it highly favored by global travelers, and it has become one of the top choices for tourists visiting Europe. With the launch of direct flights between China and Portugal, more Chinese tourists and investors are expected to arrive in Portugal in the future, and tourism numbers are set to reach a new peak.
The Portuguese government has also opened its doors to welcome people from all over the world. Recently, the government amended its nationality and permanent residency laws, lowering the threshold for naturalization applications. Furthermore, the "Golden Residence Permit Program" now includes an investment option starting from €350,000 for purchasing property, allowing three generations of a family to obtain Portuguese Golden Residence Visas. For those interested in investment immigration to Portugal, it is advisable to seize this window of favorable policies while the overall environment is highly promising to ensure early application and early benefits!
