Tourism is broadly focused on by the external characteristic of allopatry,and tourist behavior called by abnormal behavior is also the point of the tourism industry and tourism research.As the development of social and people's life style,tourism,in the era of mass tourism,has become popular activity in leisure time for more and more people.Tourism is preferred as a means of escaping from everyday life,but is isolated from everyday life,whether in cognition of practice or in academic research.However,tourism actually is a part of everyday life,especially with the increase of individual travel frequency.While life is the continuity of individual behavior and behavior in everyday life is the basis for future activities,the pace of life is based on past experiences and plan formation.There is a certain interactive relationship between long-term and short-term behaviors,therefore,it is of practical significance and theoretical value to discuss the interaction when put the everyday life into the scope of tourism research.Trough reviewing relevant literature,this study structures a theoretical framework for the study of tourism life rhythm,based on rhythmanalysis and time-geography,and get space-time behavior database by using wearable devices and activity logs,in order to analyze the interaction between sleep and activity rhythm and the differences in tourism and daily life,which means whether tourism activities influence the pace of life and the daily behavior can continue to restrict that of tourism.On the other hand,the purposes of this paper are also to find whether different types of tourism defining by time and space can impact on the life rhythm after tourism and the degree of affect.The results of this paper show that:tourism looks like life of working elsewhere,the rhythm of tourism sleep is same as in everyday life.Time of falling asleep stays stable rhythm in long term is not influenced by different life styles;but time of waking up is affected by social contract activities which means today's activities promote to get up early;rhythm of tourism shows up social rhythm,such as:particular time of bus for arriving at tourism destination,opening time of scenic spots and so on.Above all,compared with everyday life,tourism shows the characters of early getting up time,multi-consumption and long-time travel.In addition,long-time-and-distance tourism has an inhibitory effect on later life.
