Study on the Variation of Scale Structure of Domestic Tourism Income Based on Fractal Theory
Tourism industry is an important part of national economy.Whether the structure of tourism system is reasonable or not directly affects its reasonable development direction,and that is related to the coordinated devel-opment of regional tourism and the sustainable development of regional economy.This paper studies the variation of scale structure of tourism income in Jilin province based on Zipf law in recent 15 years.The results indicate that the scale structures of domestic tourism income in Jilin province satisfy Zipf law in each year.The income scale is rela-tively concentrated,and the primacy index is obvious.The spatial fractal of domestic tourism income varies from single fractal including almost the whole region to local single fractal.The spatial fractal of domestic tourism income accords with the Irregular Pareto distribution well.The variation of scale structures of tourism income in Jilin Prov-ince began to decline significantly from 2007,and increased significantly in 2019.The urban scope covered by the scale-free zone shows a shrinking trend,and the scale structure of domestic tourism revenue gradually degrades.Therefore,Jilin Province should systematically study the scale of tourism from the perspective of sustainable devel-opment,make unified planning and guidance for tourism resources in all parts of the province,and promote the con-tinuous increase of the total revenue of tourism industry.
