transformation of tourists’ demand from traditional viewing tourism to participating experience tourism,and the development of tourism products to leisure,sports and other directions,people’s demand for sports and health is also expanding day by day.The leisure and healthy lifestyle has been highly praised,and the forms of people’s participation in sports activities have been diversified.The rise of national sports fitness and tourism leisure has catalyzed the cross-border integration of sports industry and tourism industry.Sports tourism,which integrates appreciation and experience,is more and more favored by tourists.Sports tourism organically integrates the characteristics and elements of sports and tourism,highlights sports elements in traditional tourism,increases the participation and experience of tourism activities,and has a variety of values.As an innovative measure to promote the development of sports tourism,sports characteristic towns are booming under the promotion of

sustainable stability of the destination and good interaction with tourists.In the current social environment of increasingly fierce competition in the tourism market,how to give full play to the advantages,make up for the shortcomings,and better tap and enhance its own attraction is an urgent problem to be considered and solved.Based on this,from the perspective of tourists’ perception,this
