Best and worst tourism slogans

Many countries rely solely on tourism to support themselves, and their slogan is the brand that brings in the bucks.

There are some doozies in here. Jordan’s ‘Yes. It’s Jordan’ is one, so too is Israel’s ‘Land of creation’ and Hungary’s ‘Think Hungary more than expected’ – maybe that one was lost in translation. But the real ‘what the’ slogan has to be Syria with ‘Always beautiful’. Hmmm … Go figure.

Here’s the full map. Click it to see it at full size.

Earlier this week, I asked the YourLifeChoices crew to choose their favourite travel slogans – and then I asked them to come up with one of their own. Now, don’t take it too seriously, we were having a bit of fun with it. And no, we won’t give up our day jobs.
