Singapore drops to 13th most Instagrammable place
Last Sunday (29 Jan), Big 7 released their ranking of the 50 most Instagrammable places in the world for 2023.
The travel blog analysed each country’s appeal on Instagram using the number of posts on the social media site in addition to TikTok views.
On Instagram, Singapore had 41.43 million posts, while on TikTok, the country cumulated a staggering 11.7 billion views.

Despite an impressive total number of hashtags on both social media platforms, it wasn’t enough to keep our top spot in 2023.
As a result, Singapore dropped down to the 13th most Instagrammable place in the world — a steep decline from last year.
