While the line graph shows the number of foreign visitors to Japan between 2008 and 2018, the pie chart compares the proportion of them from different parts of the world in 2008.
Overall, it is clear that the number of visitors to Japan experienced an upward trend during the given period, with the greatest growth observed in the second half of the decade. Additionally, most of the visitors were from Asian countries, with half of them from only two countries: China and Korea.
In 2008, about 8 million tourists visited Japan, after which this figure underwent a moderate fluctuation between 5 and 10 million in the first five years. This was followed by a significant rise, reaching just over 30 million visitors at the end of the period.
Regarding the pie chart, Japan was the most popular destination for Korean and Chinese people, accounting for 24% and 27% of the total percentage, respectively. However, the shares of other areas were significantly lower, with 15% for Taiwan and 13% for the rest of Asia. About 20% of visitors were from Hong Kong, Europe, and North America, while Oceania represented the lowest figure, at a mere 2%.
