Briefing more on the same, the managing director of Tourism Australia John said that over five lakh tourists visited Australia in August alone and the number is likely to shoot up.

Commenting on it, Australia’s stock broking major CommSec’s executive Craig James said that Australia witnessed a large number of tourists even from China. In fact, China might emerge as a leading source of tourists in the months to come, in case the same trend continues, added James.

Throwing focus on how the diminishing dollar rate in Australia is becoming one of the key factors for boosting international tourism, James stressed that the low currency rate apparently fascinated international tourists to opt Australia over other countries for travel and tourism.
