Story: Tourist industry

Sources of tourists, 1903 and 2007

In 1903 most of New Zealand’s tourists came from Australia and the United Kingdom. In 2007 Australia and the UK were still important to New Zealand tourism, but other source countries were much more diverse. Asia had become a major market.
