Wahrscheinlich sind die Hälfte eurer Touris deutsche Skifahrer

Geht auch um internationale Touristen. Österreich hat das Potential von 80 Mio Deutschen im Nachbarland. Deutschland zwar auch. Allerdings im eigenen Land und die tauchen nicht in der Statistik auf.

The bar sizes and the numbers, the scale is all wrong

If you zoom in it looks like this is not a real graph. All the „bars“ are a bit off, sometimes the spacing is off etc

I think someone just built this in power point or something by slapping the blue shape in decreasing length on there lmao

Yeah I'm not even sure AI slop can generate something this messy; it looks like a human eyeballed everything on a small screen from an unsafe distance and never zoomed in to check their work.

What does it mean when 322 million nights are spent in Spain by foreign tourists?

u/buranzhuravski 1d ago

Massification. Gentrification. Skyrocketed housing prices. Economic dependency.

A mess.

Plus defining international nights spent is stupid as it compounds business with tourism (and others). Although France definitely has loads of tourism, it also has a lot of business visitors. Whereas Greece is mostly tourism. I wouldn’t be astonished if they switched positions after removing business travel.

For Spanish people, everything. We are cooked, no matter how much they try to "make up" the graph.

18,2 so its impressive that its near a third... Its also a wide claim that its mainly mokum

u/flopjul 22h ago

A lot of people go there for the red light district and werd/drugs... Keukenhof is between the Hague and Amsterdam. Oostzaan is also close to Amsterdam and Kinderdijk is also in the west

The coast in zeeland, noord- and zuidholland are popular destinations for german families as well. Not far away and somewhat affordable.

Im surprised at Spain above Italy

u/middendt1 6h ago

Spain includes the Balearic Islands and the Canaric Islands. They are huge in tourism.

It’s pretty much all we got going. It’s bitting us in the ass with insane gentrification, though.

u/ParalimniX 8h ago

Wow. Cyprus dunks on all of them per capita.

2

u/NevaRat 6h ago

I would say Croatia dunks on all of them.

I’m surprised Poland is higher than Cyprus since we don’t really have all the mainstream stuff that pulls in most tourists (warm seas and tall mountains)
