The line graph given compares the number of overseas visitors to three different areas of a European country—the coast, the mountains, and the lakes—between 1987 and 2007 at 5-year intervals.
Looking at the illustrations, it is evident that the coast recorded the highest figure in most years, whereas the mountains had the lowest figures. Additionally, all locations showed an overall upward trend.
In 1987, the number of visitors to the coast dominated the chart at 40,000, which was roughly 20,000 higher than the mountains. The lakes ranked third with only 10,000 visitors.
Around 2000, the lakes overtook the coast as the most visited location. However, in 2007, despite some fluctuations, the coast experienced substantial growth, reaching a peak of around 70,000 visitors. Meanwhile, the number of visitors to the lakes and the mountains declined significantly, standing at just over 55,000 and 30,000, respectively.
