The chart compares the number of tourists who visited two cities, Dover and Troy during four seasons of the year.
Overall, Dover saw a gradual increase in tourists’ numbers throughout the year , whereas Troy experienced noticeable fluctuations, peaking in summer before declining in the later seasons.
In Dover, the number of tourists showed a clear upward trend throughout the four seasons. Starting at approximately 5,000 visitors in spring recorded as the lowest figure, the figure experienced a moderate rise to about 10,000 in summer,followed by a notable increase to only 15,000 in autumn. The city attracted close to 25,000 visitors in winter, nearly double the number in fall and far more than in spring and summer, marking the highest seasonal figure for the city. Compared to Troy, Dover saw a clear preference for colder seasons, especially winter.
In contrast, Troy saw considerable variation across the seasons. The number of visitors stood at just under 5,000 in spring, it then rose dramatically to reach its peak of approximately 25,000 in summer, which was notably higher than Dover’s figure for the same season. However, this was followed by a slight drop to just only 20,000 in autumn, before declining significantly to under 5,000 in winter-less than a fifth of Dover’s winter total. This opposite trend suggests that two cities had different tourist attractions depending on the time of year.
