Diversity of tourism resources: There are many kinds of tourism resources, both naturally formed, left over from history and newly built at present, which are closely related to the diversity of tourism purposes. 2. Monopoly of tourism resources, that is, non-transferability: People often refer to tourism as "invisible trade" and "export of scenic spots", which actually attracts tourists from all corners of the world to tourist destinations by virtue of these various natural and social and cultural resources. Different from other resources, tourism resources have a strong monopoly. 3. Seasonality of tourism resources: Apart from meetings, business and other forms of tourism, sightseeing is most limited by seasons. This is particularly evident in coastal cities. Every summer, tourists flock to the summer vacation, which leads to supersaturation. There are problems with food, shelter, transportation, travel, shopping and entertainment, so that some people complain that "spending money is a loss." However, from June 10 to May of the following year, there were few tourists in the tourist attractions. Therefore, the seasonality of tourism has caused the off-season of tourism. The longer the peak season, the greater the tourism income, and vice versa. 4. Nationality of tourism resources: China has a long history, a vast territory and many nationalities. The geographical location, natural environment, historical background and economic conditions of all ethnic groups are different, so their lifestyles, costumes, customs, residential buildings and snacks are also different, which has a strong national color. Attribute classification: People have many ways to classify the types of tourism resources, but according to the common practices of various countries, tourism resources can be roughly divided into three categories, one is natural tourism resources, the other is humanistic tourism resources, and the other is social tourism resources.
