London was by far the city with the highest international tourism spending in the United Kingdom in 2022. That year, inbound travel expenditure in the UK's capital amounted to 14.1 million British pounds, remaining around 10 percent lower than in 2019, prior to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Edinburgh, Manchester, and Glasgow followed on the ranking that year. While Birmingham placed fifth based on inbound spending, it ranked fourth in the list of the cities in the UK with the highest number of international visits, ahead of Liverpool and Glasgow.
