Lonely Planet reveals top winter destinations
Lonely Planet has released the results of a survey to discover the world's most popular destinations for a winter break.
The company asked its staff and authors where they would like to spend the Christmas holiday season, with Hawaii emerging as the most popular spot among respondents in the US.
Staff in Australia named Vanuatu as their top destination for a winter break.
The survey also highlighted a widespread fondness for Prague.
Describing the appeal of the Czech capital, Lonely Planet staff member Ali Lemer said: "Walking down the old cobbled laneways with a new scarf and a hot chocolate in hand is a wonderfully European way to spend the winter."
Other destinations cited by the survey respondents include Tahoe in the US, Oaxaca in Mexico and even Antarctica.
