During vacations, people try to explore new places, but it is impossible for tourists to see all interesting locations. In this paper, we shed the light on differences between favorite places of tourists and locals using Instagram profiles. The time windows based identification method is proposed to distinguish visitors from residents. The list of potential tourists’ attraction points in Saint Petersburg was obtained by analysis of locals’ popular places.
