Analysis Of The Development And Evolution Of Rural Tourism Clusters And The Path Of Spatial Growth

Rural tourism has become a hotspot of local tourism development,the regional tourism economic growth point and concerns of scholars exploring a new path of rural development in the historical times of China's rapid urbanization,rural landscape facing unprecedented threat,rapid growing rural tourism demand of urban residents.What's more,rural tourism is becoming more and more favored by investors,at the same time,central government emphasizes on urban development to make people see the mountains,see water and live nostalgia.The trends of rural tourism transferee gradually from Nongjiale,leisure agriculture,rural sighting tourism and other traditional,decentralized development model into Rural Tourism Agglomeration(RTA),which is a development model of the land intensive,spatial optimization,industrial efficiency and ecological harmony.At present,our country is during the key period of "beautiful country" construction and the rise of Rural Tourism Agglomer-ation(RTA).The paper is based on the empirical research and discusses the basic connotation and construction path of Rural Tourism Agglomeration area,which has important theoretical significance and practical value for the land use,industrial scale,cultural heritage,landscape quality and leisure environment in the construction of Rural Tourism Agglomeration(RTA).Based on the analysis of theoretical research and empirical analysis,this paper analyzes the basic connotation of Rural Tourism Agglomeration(RTA),from three concept of rural tourism,namely,the definition of rural tourism,the elements of the environment and the basic features of rural tourism.The paper includes the basic features of rural tourism about the optimized land use,the spatial distribution of rural tourism,RTA's localization and so on.Then,the paper considers Rural Tourism Agglomeration's growth(or construction)in the process of cycle and divides the development of RTA into industrial incubation stage,industrial extension stage,industrial convergence stage,industrial networking stage during its gradual growth process.The paper makes the conclusion that rural tourism cluster's growth(or construction)is beneficial from the organic interaction and cooperation extension about the "point","line" and "surface",which there are three elements of spatial forms,with the help of tourism destination life cycle theory and the "patch-corridor-matrix" model tools.At the same time,the paper takes international slow-city of Gaochun,Jiangsu Province as an empirical example to carry out a detailed analysis.At last,the paper puts forward the problem and thinking in the process of research,and puts forward the direction and focus of the research in the future.The main features and innovations of this paper are:(1)The research contents of the paper are based on the rural tourism cluster and tackle the standard concept,the composition,classification and basic characteristics of the system.(2)The research perspectives and research methods are innovative from the life cycle theory and the"patch-corridor-matrix" model to establish the path of rural tourism agglomeration area.(3)The theoretical contribution and practical significance of the research on the theory system of rural tourism,which reflects the practical value of scientific research servicing social development.
