Research on Spatial Distribution Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Rural Tourism Demonstration Sites in Xinjiang
A total of 237 rural tourism demonstration sites in Xinjiang released from 2010 to 2023 were select-ed as the research objects,and the spatial distribution characteristics were analyzed from three perspectives:spatial distribution equilibrium,spatial distribution agglomeration and spatial distribution density,and the influencing fac-tors of the spatial distribution of rural tourism demonstration sites in Xinjiang were analyzed by random forest model.The results showed that:(1)The spatial distribution of rural tourism demonstration sites in Xinjiang was relatively uneven,showing a spatial distribution pattern of more in northern Xinjiang and less in southern Xinjiang with local agglomeration.(2)The rural tourism demonstration sites in Xinjiang as a whole showed the spatial distribution characteristics of"one pole,two cores,and one belt",and the kernel density of prefectures and cities spread from the center of prefecture-level administrative regions to the surrounding areas.(3)Tourist source market,socio-eco-nomic and tourism development were the main dimensions affecting the spatial distribution of demonstration sites in northern Xinjiang,and socio-economic,natural environment and tourist source market were the main dimensions af-fecting the spatial distribution of demonstration sites in southern Xinjiang.
