Usually explained by a different time of week/year/month. If you stay in a place for a while you get a sense of patterns. Often there's waves of tourists depending on neighboring country holidays and if you're a local you learn to avoid popular landmarks during those times.

You make it sound like that's the problem and not increasing rent. If one day your place looks much more profitable everyone involved will try to get a piece.

- ShinyLeftPad 5mo agoMany big holidays don't coincide every year on the same date in Gregorian calendar, and in a few places I lived such that central landmarks can be absolutely flooded on particular days of week because it's a tourist destination or for religious observances. Not to say you're wrong, maybe there's more tourists, but from experience it can be misleading.
