The expenditure of international visitors in London, United Kingdom, bounced back in 2022, after falling dramatically due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Despite growing sharply compared to the previous year, the inbound tourism spending in the UK's capital remained below pre-pandemic levels, amounting to roughly 14.1 billion British pounds in 2022. The rise in inbound tourism spending was mainly driven by a significant increase in the number of overseas tourist visits in London.
