The Maldives, Barbados? No, Avatar's Pandora is our must-have holiday destination

Avatar's Pandora is our top holiday spot

THE planet of Pandora, from the film Avatar, has been voted the fictional place we’d most like to jet off to on holiday.

In a poll inspired by the new mythical Clash of the Titans movie, which was filmed in Tenerife, a total of 1,739 people revealed which made up land they’re dying to visit on holiday.

Avatar’s Pandora was closely followed by Hogwarts, JK Rowling’s mythical school of witchcraft and wizardry from the Harry Potter series.

A whopping 54 per cent of people claimed they would book a trip to the school, if it were a real place.

Old favourite Narnia was third on the list of imaginary locations we’d most like to be tourists in - 48 per cent, admitted they would book a break there.

Other illusory places respondents said they would stopover at were Neverland with 45 per cent and El Dorado, the mythical city of gold, with 39 per cent.

Chris Brown, co-founder of tenerife.co.uk said: “It’s quite endearing to see the large number of people who have obviously fallen for these fictional places from films - Avatar especially seemed to grab the viewers’ attention with the stunning setting that is Pandora.”

He continued: “On another of our sites, we are able to look carefully at the destinations people are searching for and I must say, it’s not uncommon for us to receive a search or two for ‘Atlantis’ and even ‘El Dorado’”.

The top ten list of fictional places tourists would most like to visit are:

1.              Pandora, Avatar – 67%
2.              Hogwarts, Harry Potter – 54%
3.              Narnia, The Chronicles of Narnia – 48%
