Abstract:

Cultural landscape is an important factor affecting the layout of regional cultural tourism integration development. Taking Fenhe River Basin as the research object, this paper constructs the evaluation index system of cultural landscape tourism development potential from three dimensions of cultural resource endowment, tangible spatial carrier and tourism external environment, and systematically explains the spatial differentiation characteristics of the tourism development potential of cultural landscape in Fenhe River Basin. The results show that: (1) The weights of the evaluation subsystems of cultural landscape tourism in Fenhe River Basin are tangible spatial carriers, intangible cultural resources endowment and external environment of tourism from the largest to the smallest, respectively. (2)The distribution characteristics of the evaluation results of each subsystem differ significantly. The intangible cultural resources endowment decreases from the middle to the lower reaches, and the upper reaches are the lowest; the tangible spatial carriers show the distribution pattern of high in the middle and upper reaches and low in the lower reaches; and the external environment of the tourism presents the core and edge structure. (3) The comprehensive evaluation results of Fenhe River Basin cultural landscape tourism development potential show a spatial pattern of high in the middle reaches and low in the upper and lower reaches, and Taiyuan urban area has the highest evaluation level, which is the main core of Fenhe River Basin cultural landscape tourism development. Finally, on this basis, the suggested ways to optimize the development of cultural landscape tourism in Fenhe River Basin are proposed.
