"Tourist arrivals" refer to the number of visitors who travel to a specific destination for leisure, business, or other purposes. This metric is often used by governments and tourism boards to assess the popularity of a location and its economic impact. Factors influencing tourist arrivals include seasonality, travel restrictions, and local attractions. Tracking tourist arrivals helps destinations plan for infrastructure needs, such as hotels, transportation, and services. It also aids in marketing efforts to attract more visitors. Understanding trends in tourist arrivals can provide insights into changing travel behaviors and preferences among different demographics.
