Although the tourism emerged in the middle of the 19th century, it developed rapidly with the increasing productivity, resulting in the severe environment problems. The lotion of "Going back to and protecting the nature" was also put forward in 1980s', and the concept of eco-tourism received attention from all over the world, aiming at a kind of balanced development between society, economy and ecology. For more man twenty years, the study on it became more and more satisfactory and practical.Pangquan Gully natural conservation region lies at E111@ 22' ~ 111@ 33', N37@ 45' ~ 37@ 55' in Guandi mountains. There are enough ecotourist resources, and a wild range of plants with mild climate and attractive scenery. Therefore, it is a proper place for tourism.This article mainly deals with the investigation of the Pangquan Gully, a ecotourism place, by ways of quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis in the ordination and classification evaluation of resources, planning and management perspectives, natural conservation region, with all kinds of configure of earth surface, lots of living resources, and obvious vertical changes of climate, vegetation and soil. It is fit for eco-tourism.In the analysis of ecological relationship between vegetation and environment, we got 11 community types by combining TWINSPAN with DCA. The first axis of OCA indicated the elevation level and heat gradient while the second axis indicated slope factor. The analysis shows that the resource of tourism in Pangquan Gully is abundant and the construction is rational. The situation of vegetation in Pangquan Gully conforms to the rule of natural evolution.We use EIA method to calculate Pangquan Gully's day-capacity and the result shows mat the day-capacity of tourists is about 2700, which is much higher than its reality. So there exists great potential. We make use of the AHP- the method of quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis to evaluate the quantity of tourism resources in Pangquan Gully, and also poll investigation to valuate the market. The outcome is mat the resource of tourism in Pangquan Gully is abundant and various; but the auxiliary installations and the service lags behind relatively, and so on.From what has been discussed above, we believe that there is great potential to develop the ecotourism in Pangquan Gully. However, mere are a lot of program to take before exploiting the resource reasonably. Firstly, it is necessary to develop the characteristic of eco-tourism basing on the theory of ecology, under the guide of policy and attracting kinds of vestment in Pangquan Gully. Secondly, coordination is indispensable between Pangquan Gully and othertourist regions in Shanxi province. Thirdly, the service level must be increased, because it isessential for environment conversation. And inhabitant's income should be increased to cultivate a certain number from the local residents. Finally, some steps must be taken to strengthen the management of the travelers and the tourist surroundings looked, after.
