What are the main features of China's tourism resources?

1. The variety is complete and rich. Under the complicated geographical environment and long historical and cultural background of China, the quantity and quality of its tourism resources are second to none in the world. Typical representatives can be found in the eight categories, 3 1 sub-categories and 155 basic types of tourism resources set by China Tourism Resources Classification Investigation and Evaluation Scheme, and each type can be subdivided into many sub-categories, such as pavilions, restaurants, teahouses, theaters, towers, bell towers, arrow towers, tube towers, wind and rain buildings, observation towers, etc. There are more than 3,000 kinds of ornamental chrysanthemums, more than 2,000 kinds of orchids and more than 200 kinds of plum blossoms among exotic flowers and herbs, which fully shows the diversity and richness of China's tourism resources. 2. China is one of the four ancient civilizations in the world, and its historical development has never been interrupted by foreign invasion. Five thousand years of blood, handed down from generation to generation, has always maintained its own unique style, and its historical sites, cultural relics, customs, flavor food, culture and art have all been marked with the imprint of ancient civilization. Among the excavated ancient human sites, the 8 million-year-old ape fossils found in Shihuiba, Lufeng, Yunnan Province are the first discovered ape skulls from the late Miocene to the early Pliocene in the world. The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal was dug in the late spring and autumn of the 5th century BC, 2000 years earlier than the oldest Swedish Ge Daer Canal in the world. The construction history of the ancient Great Wall is more than 2,500 years, and it is called one of the "Seven Wonders of the World". China's garden art began in the era of Xuanyuan Huangdi; Plum blossom and chrysanthemum have a cultivation history of more than 3000 years; Sericulture and silk weaving have a history of more than 4000 ~ 5000 years. China's tourism resources are not only ancient, but also unique. There are thousands of unique tourism resources that are the best in the world. For example, Mount Everest, the world's highest peak, Zhao Zhouqiao, the world's oldest open-shouldered bridge, the Forbidden City, the world's largest palace complex, the world's largest royal garden chengde mountain resort, Leshan Giant Buddha and so on, all have uniqueness and monopoly. 3. Widely distributed, but relatively concentrated, China has rich and diverse tourism resources all over the country. Even on Mount Qomolangma, known as the "roof of the earth world", there are ice peaks for tourists to climb and explore, and salt ponds on the water surface of Aiding Lake for tourists to enjoy. The oriental red sun at the intersection of Heilongjiang and Wusuli River, the sunset at Alashankou in Xinjiang, the grassland sheep in Inner Mongolia, the coconut groves in Hainan Island, and the so-called "eight scenic spots" or "ten scenic spots" in remote mountainous counties all show the characteristics of extensive distribution of tourism resources in China. At the same time, these resources are relatively concentrated. If we connect a straight line from Heihe Town in Heilongjiang Province to Ruili in Yunnan Province, it will just divide the whole country into two parts with equal area. From a macro point of view, seven ancient capitals, five mountains, four religions in Foshan, four famous Taoist mountains, three ancient buildings and three famous buildings in the south of the Yangtze River, as well as famous garden cities in China, most national key scenic spots and historical and cultural ancient cities are concentrated in the east of this line. China's tourism resources also have the characteristics of concentrated distribution. For example, along the Yangtze River from Lushan Mountain in Jiangxi to Chongqing, from east to west, there are Lushan Mountain, a "fairyland on earth", Wuhan, where turtles and snakes lock the river, Yueyang, where mountains, lakes and buildings are integrated, the magnificent Three Gorges of the Yangtze River and historical and cultural cities such as Jiangling, Zigui and Baidicheng, the ancient battlefields of Chibi and Dangyang, and legends attached to them. The North-South Grand Canal, the Great Wall of Wan Li, the ancient tea-horse road, the Silk Road, the Pearl River Delta, the Yangtze River Delta, the Bohai Bay area and the Sichuan Basin are all places where China's tourism resources are concentrated.

4. The seasonality is obvious and the region is strong. Because most parts of China are in temperate and subtropical regions with obvious seasonal changes, the grass grows and the flowers fall in bloom in spring. Summer is hot and humid, and everything is brilliant; In autumn, the sky is crisp and the fruit and wood are fragrant; It rains and snows in winter, and the mountains and rivers are bare. In summer, the seashore in the north and the mountainous area in the mid-latitude area are ideal places for summer vacation, while in winter, Hainan Island has become a good place for people to take a holiday from the cold. Mount Tai is the best place to see the sunrise in winter and spring, and Mount Huangshan is the best place to see the sea of clouds at the turn of spring and summer. Because human social activities are often restricted by the natural environment, many cultural tourism resources in China are obviously seasonal. For example, the "fragrant city" in Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue is the most prosperous in autumn and August, and the cattle and sheep in Inner Mongolia grassland are the most fertile in summer and autumn. There are also festivals such as boating on the Dragon Boat Festival in May, watching the bright moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, and Lantern Festival, all of which show seasonal characteristics. Influenced by the geographical environment, tourism resources in different regions have different styles. For example, Guilin is famous for its karst scenery, Wuyi Mountain in Fujian and Danxia Mountain in Guangdong win by Danxia, and the sandstone tower peak forest in Zhangjiajie, Hunan is unparalleled in the world. There are also houses, such as quadrangles in Beijing, caves in northern Shaanxi, a seal in Yunnan, Gan Lan in Guangxi, Hakka earth buildings in Fujian and so on. , all show strong local characteristics and national style.

5. Natural landscape and human landscape complement each other. Since ancient times, the people of China have been advocating nature. "Benevolent people enjoy Leshan, wise people enjoy water" is a summary of their history. Emperors, generals, literati and monks all like to haunt famous mountains and rivers, leaving many cultural attractions, so that some scenic spots often combine natural landscape and cultural landscape, and historical culture and scenic spots. For example, the ancient city of Yueyang, Hunan, not only has famous buildings, famous mountains and famous waters, but also in a place with a distance of only 0.98km? Between the 72 peaks of Junshan Mountain, there are 48 temples, two concubines' tombs (E Huang and Nv Ying in Shun Di), the mountain seal of Qin Shihuang, Jiaotai, Langyin Pavilion, Yang Mao Village, Liuyi Well, etc. , which is accompanied by many beautiful and moving myths and legends. Wudang Mountain in Hubei Province concentrates on 72 peaks, 36 rocks, 24 streams, 1 1 caves, 9 springs, 8 palaces, 2 views, 36 Antang, 12 pavilion, 10 temple and 72 temples, making it more aesthetic, scientific and historical and cultural.
