江苏省旅游等级景区发展及其空间分布特征研究

系统分析了2001年以来江苏省旅游等级景区的发展态势和等级结构演变特征,并对2007年全省旅游等级景区空间分布特征进行了研究.研究结果表明:2001年以来江苏全省旅游等级景区总量逐年上升,年均增长率达37%;不同等级的旅游景区发展历程各有差异,4A级景区发展最为平稳,3A级景区增长最快,2A级景区持续快速发展,1A级景区发展明显滞缓;2006年以来全省旅游景区等级结构趋于相对稳定;2007年全省旅游等级景区主要集中分布在苏南地区,而在苏中、苏北地区的空间集中度较低,其中,2A至4A景区在全省的空间分布具有"空间集聚程度随景区等级提高而上升,等级越低的景区空间分布越均匀"的特点,4A级以上的高等级旅游景区主要集中分布在苏州、无锡、南京等苏南城市.

Research on the Development of Tourist Attractions of Different Ranks in Jiangsu and the Characteristics of Their Spatial Distribution

Based on the systematic analysis of developing situation and characteristics of ranking structure evolution of tourist attractions in Jiangsu since 2001, this paper makes a research on the characteristics of spatial distribution of tourist attractions of different ranks in 2007. The result demonstrates the following conclusions. The total amount of tourist attractions of different ranks in Jiangsu has been increasing year after year since 2001 with an annual rate of 37%. Tourist attractions of different ranks have undergone varied developing course, with the most stable development in 4A-rank tourist attractions,the fastest increase in 3A-rank tourist attractions, a continuous and.rapid development in 2A-rank tourist attractions and an obvious delayed development in 1A-rank tourist attractions. The structure of tourist attractions of different ranks in Jiangsu tends to be relatively stable since 2006. In 2007, tourist attractions of different ranks concentrate mainly in the southern part of Jiangsu while show a relatively low spatial concentrating degree in the middle and northern part of Jiangsu, among which the provincial spatial distribution of 2A to 4A-rank tourist attractions is of increased spatial convergence degree with promoted ranks and the less the rank is, the more equal the spatial distribution is. Advanced tourist attractions higher than 4A-rank areas concentrate mainly in Suzhou, Wuxi, Nanjing and other southern cities of Jiangsu.
