The British Museum has reclaimed its title as the UK's most-visited attraction, a significant rebound following a period marked by scandal. This resurgence in popularity comes amidst a broader trend of recovery for tourist sites across the UK, although visits remain below pre-pandemic levels. Research attributes the sluggish recovery in part to the retention of the 'tourist tax', which has negatively impacted spending. In related developments, the UK National Archives' first touring exhibition has opened at the Discovery Museum, and Guernsey is seeing a flurry of activity with museum sites reopening, a refurbishment of a pumping station for £300,000, and the launch of an online consultation for harbour developments.
