Following two harsh years of tourist numbers dropping due to the ongoing pandemic, the Association of Leading Visitor Attractions has revealed the nation's most visited attractions in the last year.
The ALVA found that since the start of the pandemic outdoor venues such as gardens and zoos have taken a rise in visitors, with sites seeing a slight increase from previous years.
Whereas primary indoor venues are still massively down since the state of the pandemic.
But the recent report from ALVA has found which outdoor attractions the nation has been looking to this year.
With many London destinations taking a spot in the list of top ten even after London saw the weakest year-on-year performance with visits up just 17% compared with 26% for other areas of England.
