The Spatial Mismatch Between Tourism Resources And Tourism Flow In Hubei Province

Tourism resources are the basic elements of tourism attraction, and the quality, brand, quality and popularity of tourism resources directly influence the scale and efficiency of tourists. As a big tourism province in Central China, Hubei is rich in tourism resources, and the number of tourists and tourism revenue has increased year by year, its overall competitiveness of tourism rose to the top ten in our country. With the good situation of tourism in Hubei Province, there are some huge differences between cities. Wuhan is in the lead of all cities; Huangshi, Ezhou and Shennongjia rank in the end; the gap between the two districts are big. Then we can find that the city with rich tourism resources are also has the situation of poor tourism economic benefits, so the research on spatial dis-match between the tourism resources and the tourism flow has important significance in the analysis of tourism resources influence, narrowing the imbalance of tourism development in Hubei Province and to improve the overall tourism strength.On the basis of a fully summary and analysis the related research, I give a basic definitions and explanations of related concepts and theoretical basis, such as tourism resources, tourism flow, spatial mismatch and theory of resource endowment, resource curse and spatial mismatch. Then I analysis all the data by means of gravity model and two-dimensional matrix and get the following conclusions.First of all, this paper briefly analyzes the current situation of tourism resources and tourism flows of 14 cities in Hubei Province. By carrying on the quantification analysis about the tourism resources superiority degree and the quality of tourism flow in Hubei province, we can obtain the 14 cities comprehensive score and the rank and find that there is a certain degree of disharmony between the tourism resources and tourism flows in Hubei province.Secondly, the thesis uses the gravity model to analyze the geometric gravity center of tourism resources, tourism flow quality, number of tourists and tourism income, the results show that the gravity center of the four indices are tend to the eastern region of Hubei Province. It shows that the tourism in eastern is good than in western of Hubei and tourism income has the greatest deviation. Moreover, the two dimensional matrix analysis determine the dis-match status and degree between tourism resources and tourism flow in 14 cities. The results tells that Wuhan and Enshi did not produce dislocation and other cities had different degrees of spatial mismatch, which Ezhou and Xiaogan have positive dis-match and Shennongjia has severe reverse dislocation.Finally, according to the degree and characteristics of spatial mismatch between 14 cities in Hubei Province, the thesis give some proposed counter-plans to promote the coordinated development of tourism in Hubei Province. And the plans are based on the five aspects covering in tourism resources, tourism market, tourism cooperation, tourism traffic, and tourism policy.
