Potential of Rural Health Tourism in Hainan Province Based on the Gravitational Force Model
By taking the comfort of living environment as the gravitational force of tourism attractions,the potentials of 154 coconut rural tourism sites to develop health oriented tourism in Hainan Province are calculated using gravitational force model based on the analysis of the climatic environment characteristics of Hainan Island,so as to provide a reference for the growth of rural health oriented tourism there.The results show that the potential of health oriented tourism developed on rural tourism sites in Hainan increasingly grows from the west to the east,and the areas with high potential value are mainly distributed in the Puqian Bay area,the junction area of Haikou City,Chengmai County and Ding'an County,the southern part of Sanya City and the eastern coastal area of Qionghai City.The livable months in Hainan's coconut rural tourism sites coincide with the preferred stay period of"migratory tourists",and the central mountainous area has better facilities for health oriented tourism owing to its climatic condition.The rural tourism sites in Hainan with the potential value above 10100 and more than 8 months of comfortable environment in a year show a good development potential,among which Qiongzhong County and Haikou City should focus on the planning and development of rural health-oriented tourism industry in their jurisdictions.
