Instagram hit: The competition

In the ranking of TravelCircus, Norderney and Borkum take second and three. An impressive performance for Fehmarn, considering that these three places are the only island small cities in Germany that appear in the rankings. The municipality of Fehmarn, which also includes the city of Burg, has more than 12,000 inhabitants and remains loyal as a small town, because only from 20,000 citizens is a place officially categorized as a middle city.

If you look at the popularity of other places, it is striking that the Bavarian city of Füssen has a high presence on Instagram, but can also keep up with Heiligenhafen with its multitude of 176,628 contributions. These cities show how important social media have become for the marketing of travel destinations.
