Tourism in Italy boomed in the summer of 2017, with almost 50 million people spending the night at an Italian hotel during June, July, and August alone. Venice, to the north, enjoyed a 19.4% hike in tourist spending, and Naples in the south saw a rise of 17.8%. Interestingly, Tax Free Shopping has also soared in Italy, thanks to fast-increasing numbers of Chinese and Russian tourists. The growth rate of 31% in April 2017 was particularly impressive, the biggest increase since autumn 2015.
