What are the characteristics of tourism resources?

Evaluation of tourism resources refers to determining the position of a tourism resource among all tourism resources or similar tourism resources according to certain standards, that is, determining the importance and development value of a tourism resource through vertical and horizontal comparison of tourism resources.

Tourism resources evaluation and its theoretical research began in the 1970s, and the evaluation methods are divided into two categories:

1, empirical analysis. On the basis of a large number of investigations and studies, it is evaluated according to experience;

2. Quantitative evaluation. Quantify the evaluation indicators, establish a quantitative model, and weight it with the quality grade of tourism resources, that is, the evaluation value is the sum of the weighted standard values ai of all evaluation indicators.

Characteristics of tourism resources

Specifically, natural resources include: climate, topography, animals and plants, beaches, natural scenery and so on. And human resources include: nationalities, customs, historical sites, museums, restaurants and dishes, arts and crafts, literature, music, dance, movies, television and many entertainment facilities.

1. 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.

Just like the Great Wall in Wan Li, one of the greatest wonders in the history of world architecture, you can't see it in other countries. As many tourists have said, "If you go to China, you won't go to China. If you don't visit the Great Wall in Beijing, you won't go to Beijing. "

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, so that there is supersaturation. There are problems with food, shelter, transportation, travel, shopping and entertainment, so that some people complain about spending money.

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.

Such as Mongolian yurts in Inner Mongolia grassland, bamboo houses in southwest China, quadrangles in North China, Water-splashing Festival of Dai people, Buddha-bathing Festival of Tibetan people, Fireworks Festival of Dong people, Torch Festival of Yi people, Song Festival of Zhuang people and so on. In these grand national festivals and grand events, people of all ethnic groups are dressed in gorgeous costumes, singing and dancing, in high spirits, and the atmosphere is very warm. These activities are very attractive to tourists from all over the world.

From the above characteristics, tourism resources are like a mirror, reflecting a country's history, culture, art, material and civilization level in a unique way. Through them, we can not only see the past, but also look forward to the future, and enhance the self-confidence and pride of the nation.
