| The successful convening of the 19 th National Congress and the celebration of the 70 th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China not only brought red tourism to China,injected new vitality into it,but also created new development opportunities for red tourism.In the context of the new era,due to differences in regional tourism development,especially differences in tourism resources,location conditions,transportation facilities,economic development,etc.,resulting in differences in tourism space,thus affecting the comprehensive and coordinated development of regional tourism.The research on the spatial structure of red tourism is not only conducive to scientific regulation and structural optimization of the development of red tourism in tourist destinations,but also to the protection of red sites and the inheritance of red genes,and to promote the sustainable development of tourism.Hubei province is known as "the province of thousands of lakes",not only has rich natural resources,but also a big province of red tourism resources.The research on the spatial structure of red tourism in Hubei Province is representative in the empirical research on the optimization of tourism space in provincial tourism areas,and it has certain reference significance for the formulation of the development plan of red tourism in Hubei province and sustainable development of tourism.This article takes Hubei province as the research object,and takes 1802 red sites in Hubei province as the research sample.It uses literature analysis,GIS spatial analysis and statistical analysis methods,from tourism resources,tourist attractions,tourist reception facilities,tourist transportation and customer source markets.This paper analyzes the spatial structure of red tourism in Hubei province and draws the following conclusions:(1)In terms of tourism resources: overall,red tourism resources in Hubei Province are distributed in an agglomerated form;there is a significant imbalance and the agglomeration trend is more obvious,of which Wuhan,Huanggang,Jingzhou and Huangshi are the most significant and are important red Tourist resources-rich areas;(2)In terms of scenic spots: the scenic spots are generally higher in grades,mainly 4A and 3A,but lack large-scale high-quality red tourist spots of grade 5A,mainly distributed in eastern and northwestern Hubei,with Huanggang and Yichang It is the most concentrated with Wuhan,and the red tourism products are relatively single;(3)Tourism reception facilities: presents agglomeration distribution,but the spatial distribution varies greatly,with more in the east and less in the west,mainly concentrated in the core area with Wuhan as the center and Yichang and Xiangyang The belt-shaped core area with Shiyan as the core;(4)Tourism traffic: Mainly railways and highways,the difference in tourism traffic among cities and prefectures is obvious.Through buffer zone analysis,Wuhan’s transportation network has the highest density,radiating radially to the surrounding areas.The range is wide,and the accessibility of Huanggang,Jingzhou and Xiaogan is relatively low,and most scenic spots are distributed beyond 7.5Km of important transportation lines.There are few important transportation lines in Enshi and Shiyan,and the accessibility of red tourist attractions is not strong;(5)Tourist source market: The main source market is mainly tourists from Hubei province,followed by cities and The triangle and the Pearl River Delta;most of the red tourist attractions are far from the source market,and are distributed in remote mountainous areas and rural areas.The attraction of the scenic spots is very limited.Through analysis,it is found that there are large differences in the spatial distribution of tourism resources,low development utilization rates,relatively simple tourism products,cooperation between scenic spots to be improved,tourism infrastructure to be improved,and the source market to be further developed.In view of the current situation and development needs of red tourism in Hubei Province,in the context of global tourism,with the guidance of the "point-axis" system theory,it is proposed to build a "point-line-area" red tourism space system,from improving the red tourism transportation network,strengthening In terms of industrial integration,regional cooperation and tourism security,optimization strategies are proposed to provide reference opinions for the development of red tourism in Hubei province,and also provide a theoretical basis for future research on the optimization of the spatial structure of red tourism in Hubei province and the layout of regional tourism development. |
