The spatio-temporal characteristics and influencing factors of tourism economic connections along the Yellow River Economic Belt under the Belt and Road Initiative
Promoting tourism economic connections between provinces and regions along the Yellow River Economic Belt is of great significance for their high-quality development of social,economic,and ecological civilization.This paper uses gravity model,social network,geographical space and other analytical methods to analyze the spatio-temporal evolution characteristics and influencing factors of economic connections between domestic tourism and inbound tourism in 9 provinces along the Yellow River Economic Belt before and after the Belt and Road Initiative was put forward.The study found that:(1)The total intensity of tourism economic connections along the Yellow River Economic Belt shows a spatial distribution pattern of gradients increase from upstream to downstream of the Yellow River.The total intensity of domestic tourism economic connections in various provinces and regions is significantly higher than that of inbound tourism.The proposal has led to an increasing trend in the total intensity and regional imbalance of domestic and inbound tourism connections year by year.(2)The tourism economic connection direction of the Yellow River Economic Belt extends from the lower reaches to the middle and upper reaches.After the initiative was put forward,the direction of domestic tourism connections remained basically unchanged,but Sichuan entered the core axis of inbound tourism connections.(3)The tourism economic connection network along the Yellow River Economic Belt presents a core-periphery structure.The initiative promotes an increase in network density,a trend towards complex and balanced network structures.The complexity and density growth trend of domestic tourism networks are greater than those of inbound tourism.(4)The road network density,the number of permanent residents at the end of the year,the number of annual tourists and the number of the Belt and Road tourism policies are the main factors affecting the total intensity of domestic tourism economic connection in each province.The road network density,the number of permanent residents at the end of the year,the number of tourism practitioners and regional GDP are the main factors affecting the total intensity of inbound tourism economic connection in each province.
