The chart delineates the distribution of visitors to various types of tourist attractions in Britain in 1999. It consits of two parts: firstly, a pie char showing the spread of visitors to 4 types of tourist attractions, including theme parks, museum and galleries, historic mounments and wildlife parks and zoos; and secondly, a table showing the distribution of visitors to different themeparks across Britain.
Looking from the overall perspective, it is readily apparent that theme parks and museums are the two most popular tourist attractions. 37% of the surveyed tourists visits the museums, marginally behind that visiting the theme parks which hosted 38% of the visitors in 1999. Conversely, wildlife zoos and parks’ attendance was the lowest among the four types of tourist attractions.
While theme parks topped the chart, the number of people visiting different theme parks across Britain differ. Blackpool Pleasure Beach had the most number of visitors as 47% of the visitors, who visited theme parks, explored the beach. Chessington World of Adventures and Legoland in Windsor were the least popular, with only 10% of the visitors touring over in the year.
In conclusion, the chart showed that theme parks, particularly the Blackpool Pleasure Beach, were the most sought-after tourist destination in Britain in the 1999. Whereas, wildlife parks and zoos challenge in attracting tourists.
