Description
The chart shows the number of visitors to the Uffizi Gallery, Palazzo Pitti, and Boboli Gardens from 2017 to 2023. Visitor numbers steadily increased from 2017 to 2019, peaking at over 4.39 million visitors in 2019. However, the COVID-19 pandemic led to a sharp decline in 2020, with only 1.2 million visitors. A gradual recovery began in 2021 and continued through 2022, with visitor numbers returning close to pre-pandemic levels in 2022 at over 4 million. By 2023, total visitors surged past previous records, reaching 5.2 million, driven largely by a notable increase in visitors to the Uffizi Gallery and a steady recovery in Palazzo Pitti and Boboli Gardens. This post-pandemic growth highlights the resurgence of international tourism and the strong appeal of Florence's iconic cultural sites.
