The development status and trend of the cultural tourism complex as a new format of tourism industry integration under the guidance of the national strategy of all-for-one tourism are worthy of attention and discussion. With Xishuangbanna's two cultural tourism complexes of Gaozhuangxishuangjing and Xishuangbanna-based Wanda International Resort as the research object, this paper compared the similarities and differences of the two tourism complexes in their development and their respective problems, and analyzed the basis and condition for their co-opetition development. The ultimate goal of this paper was to seek the relevant countermeasures and suggestions for the two cultural tourism complexes to complement each other, promote each other, and jointly promote the development of tourism in Xishuangbanna.展开更多
