The Natural History Museum started at roughly 550 thousand visitors in June. This figure decreased to about 380 thousand in July and remained relatively stable in August at around 350 thousand, before climbing to approximately 420 thousand in September.
Similarly, the Science Museum recorded around 400 thousand visitors in June, falling gradually to about 330 thousand in July and reaching a low of roughly 280 thousand in August. Visitor numbers then recovered to nearly 400 thousand in September.
