Abstract:
【Objective/Meaning】Taking the A-grade tourist attractions in Fuzhou City as the research object, the characteristics of spatial-tempora evolution were discussed and its related influencing factors were analyzed, in order to provide scientific basis for optimizing the development pattern of the tourist attractions in Fuzhou City. 【Methods/Procedures】The methods of the nearest neighbor index, geographical concentration index, kernel density analysis and standard deviation ellipse were used to analyze the evolution characteristics of A-grade tourist attractions, and the influencing factors were analyzed by ArcGIS 10.5 and SPSS 18.0.【Results/Conclusions】The results showed that: in terms of time, the A-grade tourist attractions in Fuzhou could be divided into three stages, namely slow growth, fast growth and steady growth.. In terms of spatial structure, the uniform distribution has evolved to the agglomeration distribution, but at the level of district and county, there was a tendency from the centralized distribution to the uniform distribution. And in terms of the layout trend, the A-grade tourist attractions in Fuzhou were mainly distributed in the urban area and showed the trend of outward expansion, with obvious characteristics of core-peripheral space. In terms of influencing factors, the factors such as tourism resource conditions, social and economic level, government policies and traffic conditions would have influence on its evolution process.
