When the Heat is on

It’s the season of heat and dust, when the British are at the seaside or abroad, leaving their cultural heritage to tourists. The ancient monuments, palaces and historic streets resemble a new Babylon, ringing with European, Asian and American dialects. Last year, Britain attracted nearly 21 million visitors. The trend is steadily upward, but the picture is not unequivocally good. Tourism is the world’s biggest growth industry, and Britain is facing ever fiercer competition for tourists’ spending money. “We have been a popular 44 place to come to for many years,” said Isobel Coy, of the British Tourist Authority. “Now practically every country in the world is after the tourist dollar, whether it has a small coral reef or Florence. There is serious competition out there. Britain has to concentrate on doing well and there is a lot of room for improvement.”

They come for different things. The Americans and Antipodeans (Australians and New Zealanders) are interested in common roots and architecture that is centuries older than theirs. The Russians apparently like Blackpool, the Dutch and Germans have discovered the beaches of East Anglia; the Japanese are heading for Wales, the Scandinavians for the shops in the North-east, and the Italians to the Scottish Highlands. The North Americans come in great numbers — 3,5 million last year, an increase of 4 per cent on the previous year. The biggest increase, of 30 per cent, is in visitors from Eastern Europe.

But the big growth market for tourism and the one all the competing resorts and destinations are aiming at, is the Far East, showing a growth of 15 per cent a year.

The Japanese have been coming, and continue to come, to Britain in considerable numbers — 559,000 last year — but it is such nationalities as the Koreans, the Taiwanese, the Malaysians and the Thais who hold the future in their wallets.
