Potential Evaluation and Obstacle Factors of Health and Wellness Tourism in China under the Therapeutic Landscape Theory
Scientific measurement of the development potential and obstacle factors of health and wellness tourism,is an impor-tant basis for objectively studying and judging the secondary advantages and sustainable development ability of the health and wellness tourism industry.Based on the core connotation of therapeutic landscape theory,this paper constructed the evaluation framework of health and wellness tourism development potential from regional phenology environment,tourism development level,health care service quality and the economic and social foundation.The weight linear combination model,spatial autocorre-lation analysis and obstacle degree model were adopted to reveal the characteristics of spatial heterogeneity and obstacle factors of health and wellness tourism development potential in China.The results are as follows.① The spatial heterogeneity of health and wellness tourism development potential in China was obvious,and the high potential area was distributed in the southern re-gion with the southeast hilly area as the core,the low potential area gathered in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau area and the two sides of the Tianshan Mountains.② There was a remarkably global spatial positive correlation of the development potential of health and wellness tourism in China.Zhejiang-Fujian-Guangdong-Hainan and Yunnan-Guizhou are H-H clusters,Inner Mongolia,Ningxia,Gansu and Qinghai are L-L clusters,Shaanxi and Jilin are L-H clusters,and Jiangxi is H-L cluster.③ The abundance of tourism resources,total tourism revenue,annual average temperature,transportation convenience and excellent yield were the top five factors affecting the development potential of health and wellness tourism,and the level of tourism development is the most influential comprehensive index in the development potential of health and wellness tourism in China.
