The line chart illustrates how many international travellers visited three distinct destinations in a European nation between 1987 and 2007.
Overall, the coast and the lakes attracted the largest numbers, whereas the mountains remained the least popular throughout the period. In addition, while the seaside and highlands showed steady upward trends, visits to the lakes rose sharply before falling towards the end.
In 1987, roughly 40,000 people chose the coast, making it the leading destination at that time. Although there was a minor dip around 1992, the figure subsequently increased consistently, reaching about 75,000 in 2007, the highest among all three locations. The mountains, on the other hand, began with just under 20,000 visitors. Numbers for this area climbed gradually, finishing at approximately 35,000.
By contrast, lake tourism experienced dramatic fluctuations. Starting at around 10,000 in 1987, arrivals surged dramatically, peaking at 75,000 in 2002, surpassing the coast briefly. However, this popularity was not sustained, as numbers declined to nearly 50,000 by 2007.
