The line graph below shows the number of annual visits to Australia by overseas residents. The table below gives information on the country of origin where the visitors came from.
On overall, the number of visits to Australia grew quite steady through these years. According to the chart, in 1975, there were just nearly 10 millions visits. However, just ten years after, this figure became 15 million. The number of visits to Australia grew to double in the early 1990s with 20 million visits. In 2005, Australia even became more attractive and hit the record when more than 30 million oversea residents visited this country.
Meanwhile, the table shows the country of origin that the visitors came from. In 1978, Japanese seemed to visit Australia the most with 3.2 millions (out of 8.8 million in total) and followed by Korean with 2.9 millions. Chinese and American were among the minority since only 0.3 millions and 0.4 million of them visited Australia respectively. In 2005, the similar story happened when we witnessed that Japanese still occupied the top of visits to Australia with 12.0 million visitors, Korea on the second place with 9.1 millions. Chinese still did not prefer Australia as their destiny when only 0.8 million Chinese came to this country.
