London, July 8 (ANI): When it comes to holidaying, Turkey appeals to Brits the most, says a new survey.
For the first time in 40 years, Turkey has taken the first place as Britons' No.1 holiday spot, pushing Spain to second place.
Majorca, the largest island of Spain, and Crete - one of the thirteen peripheries of Greece - grabbed the third and the fourth place in the list.
