The charts below give information about travel to and from the UK from 1979 to 1999, and the bar graph shows the most popular countries for UK residents to visit
The line graph illustrates the number of visitors from other countries visiting the
UK
and how many tourists in this
country travelled overseas between 1979 and 1999. Meanwhile, the bar chart compares the percentage of UK
travellers coming to 5 different nations in the year 1999.
It is clear that
there was an upward tendency in the sum of travels forth and back in the UK
throughout the observed period. Besides
, in 1999, France attracted the largest total of visitors from the UK
, while
the opposite was true for Turkey.
As can be seen, in 1979, people living in the UK
were not interested in travelling abroad as the figure for that stood at only 12 million
trips. However
, it increased significantly to a peak of over 50 million
within 2 decades. Likewise
, tourism in England at first was not well developed with only 10 million
journeys by international travellers to visit various destinations there. Then
over the next 20 years, it climbed modestly to 15 million
.
Furthermore
, France was recorded to be at the top of the list with over 10 million
English visitors in 1999, followed by 9 million
in Spain. By contrast
, the sum of that in the US and Greece was approximately 4 million
, whereas
the proportion of Turkey took up just 2 million
