This paper introduces the concept of tourism background trend line, and explores its two functions as a barometer in demonstrating fluctuation in the tourism economy and as a forecaster in forecasting tourism development. The tourism background trend line is a new concept, the word "background" derived from environment science, refers to the trend line" which reflects the dynamic curve or dynamic equation of tourism development without considering the impact of unexpected incidents. The introduction of this concept was inspired by Karl Marx’s comments on the relation between value and price. Tourism background trend line reflects the summary of multiple factors involving tourism resources, tourism demand, population growth, the scale and speed of economic development, and the spatial interaction between tourism origins and destimations. It demonstrates the natural and stable trend and the temporal law of tourism development in a country or region. The tourism statistical curve is at random, susceptible to disruptions and disturbances from serious political, economic and environmental happenings, but it always fluctuates around the background line. Tourism background line can reveal the potential of a country’s tourism development. Compared with the statistical line, it can be used as a barometer" indicating ups and downs of tourism industry in the past. When naturally extended, the background trend line also can be used for forecasting the trend of tourism development in future. In this paper, 4 tourism background trend lines of China’s inbound tourists, i.e. foreign tourists, Hong Kong/Macao/Taiwan tourists, overseas Chinese tourists and total tourists from abroad, were established with statistical data from 1978 to 1996. And the impacts of the Political Event in 1989(or Tiananmen Square Incident) on China’s inbound tourism were evaluated. The result shows that the impact of the Event was not limited within one year, but it stretched over 3 years. The total loss was 20 million in tourist arrivals and $ 1620 million in foreign currency income. The paper also studied the trend of China’s inbound tourism in the next 4 years.展开更多
Modem tourism development to the present, the tourists are not pursuing the general sense of the mountains and rivers, but the pursuit of harmony between man and nature, unity and the challenges of the nature in order...Modem tourism development to the present, the tourists are not pursuing the general sense of the mountains and rivers, but the pursuit of harmony between man and nature, unity and the challenges of the nature in order to return to nature, fitness and leisure. Under this condition, this paper proposes the model of construction of sports tourism system in Yunnan province under the core background of Silk Road. The research results of the sports tourism theory and practice have played an important role in promoting the development of sports and tourism. But the concept of sports tourism, different opinions, there is still no unified understanding, especially for the tourism sports research is rare. Our research provides the novel perspective on the solutions to the Yunnan sport travelling that will promote the development of the related subiects.展开更多
