The line graph illustrates the proportion of visitors to four types of places in Brighton in England, namely art gallery, pavilion, pier and festival over a 30-year period.
Overall, it is clear that the percentage of tourists who paid a visit to pavilions and piers witnessed an upward trend, while the opposite was true for art galleries and festivals over the period given. It is also evident that pavilions were the most popular attraction by a wide margin.
In 1980, the ratio of tourists who choose to visit pavilions stood at about 25%, which was followed by the figure for piers, at only 10%. Over the following 20 years, the figure for the former increased dramatically to reach a peak of nearly 50% in 1995, and then recorded a considerable drop to over 30% in 2010. By contrast, despite some minor fluctuations between around 10% to 15% during the first 20 years, the percentage of visitors to piers then rose sharply to 20% in the final year.
Turning to the remaining group, festivals dominated the line chart in 1980 with 30% of tourists choosing this, compared to 20% of people visiting art galleries. Over the next five years, the percentage of travellers paying a visit to art galleries reached a peak of nearly 35% in 1985 before decreasing back to its initial level of 20% five years later. Since then, this figure continued to fall significantly to just under 10% in 2010. Meanwhile, the percentage of festival visitors experienced a gradual decrease throughout the period, ending up at roughly 25% at the end of the period.
