The bearing capacity of the tourism environment is a concept describing the extent to which a resort can sustain the number of travelers. It can be regarded as a parameter determined by such variables as time, space, types of traveling activities and intensity. As it varies with the time and space, the study of the bearing capacity of the tourism environment should be combined with a particular region or regional type.Based on the environmental bearing capacity theories, this thesis sets up a preliminary system of the bearing capacity of the tourism environment in the water resort, and at the same time, with the case study of the bearing capacity of the tourism environment of the Kanasi scenic area which provides theoretical assistance to the research of the theories, it also deals with some quantity research. There have been abundant research findings about the environmental volume and the bearing capacity of the tourism activities about the Kanasi scenic area, while all these findings would change and develop with the passage of time. Great changes have taken place in the bearing capacity of the traveling activities in the Kanasi scenic area due to the promulgation of the new rules as well as the constant increase of new construction projects. Hence the author considers it necessary to carry out long-term research and comparison. The points which distinguish the case study in this thesis from the predecessors are as follows: ①both the survey and the research work are based on the background of new planning and construction projects to explore into the development and changes in the environmental bearing capacity caused by the human factor.②the analysis of the bearing capacity is based on the option and calculation of the project research objectives to rate the primary and minor factors in comprehensive bearing capacity and analyze the rules of distribution of traveling environmental bearing capacity in terms of time and space.③the application of the concrete control measures.We can draw the conclusion based on the above analysis:1.the system of the tourism environmental bearing capacity can be categorized into the speed index, the quantity index and the layer index which includes the extreme bearing capacity, the appropriate bearing capacity and the low bearing capacity. The quantity index includes the natural environmental bearing capacity, the economic and social bearing capacity and the social environment bearing capacity. Thirteen subtypes of bearing capacity are chosen in the Kanasi scenic area based on the characteristics of the three indexes. The speed index is the development index of the bearing capacity.2.The comprehensive number of the tourism environmental bearing capacity of the Kanasi Scenic area is 2352 people/day both in the peak and sluggish seasons determined by the ecological environmental bearing capacity. As for realizing the ecosystem tourism and sustainable development, Kanasi resort should look on ecosystem environment as the departure and end of the activity in tour, strict with controlling the number of tourist within the scope of suitable bearing capacity , keeping the ecosystem environment in resort and lasting the attraction to tourist. 3.The yearly application of the tourism environmental bearing capacity drops a bit on average but substantially in the sluggish season while keeps appropriate in the peak seasons. The overloading phenomenon shows that the problem of bearing capacity in Kanasi lies in the uneven distribution of the time. The solution should not be confined to expanding the capacity of receiving daily visitors. More measures should be taken to maximize efficiently the surplus bearing capacity in the other time sessions. 4.Since the reform and opening up in the early 90's, the visitors to Kanasi are increasing slowly year on year. However, after 2000, the number skyrocketed. Despite of the fact that a variety of planning and construction have been put forth, the tourist volume is still rising quickly. The tourists have formed a certai...
