UK residents abroad

The charts below give information about travel to and from the UK, and about the most popular countries for UK residents to visit.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features,and make comparisons where relevant.
The charts show overall numbers of visits abroad by UK residents and visits to the UK by overseas inhabitants over a 20-year period , with additional data showing the most popular countries visited by UK citizens in 1999.

According to the charts ,in 1979 the numbers of UK residents visiting abroad and foreigners who visited the UK were almost the same, about 10-11 million.Whereas after 20 years the difference was significant , the number of visits abroad was twice as much as that of overseas visitors, 52 and 26 million respectively.However , from 1979 to 1985 they both increased slightly , but for the next period ,from 1985 the first has increased sharply and the second has continued to rise steadily.

When we compare the number of UK people ,who went overseas in 1999,we can see that the most popular countries were Spain and France,at 9 and 11 million visitors respectively.And the least popular was Turkey,with a figure 4 times less then that of Spain.It is surprising to note that the number of people who visited the UK was just about 4 million.

To sum up,these charts illustrate the rises in the number of people traveling to and from the UK and the popularity of west european countries,the closest to the UK ,for UK residents to visit.
