In a bid to woo Chinese visitors following the attacks, Paris welcomed 55 Chinese tour operators in February to reassure them over security in the city.

More than half a million Indians also visited France. In 2014, France reduced the time for visas to be issued to 48 hours for visitors from China, India and Singapore.

A total of 84.5 million visitors came to France last year, an increase of 0.9 percent on 2014.
