(CNN) -- With 2014 fast approaching, media companies around the world are hard at work churning out their obligatory year-in-review/look ahead roundups. (Guilty as charged -- you can find CNN Travel's look ahead to what's hot in 2014 right here.) Last week we highlighted the most popular Facebook checkins. This week it's Instagram's turn to spill the beans on its users' favorite places to photo-filter in 2013. Once again, an attraction in Bangkok topped the list of the most Instagrammed places. Last year, the Thai capital's international airport snagged the lead spot. In 2013 it's a luxury shopping mall -- Siam Paragon, last year's No. 2. (See the 2012 Instagram list here.)
