Study On The Tourism Economic Differences Of China's Node Cities In The Silk Road Economic Belt

The Silk Road on the Land is the main channel for trade and cultural exchanges between China and the West.Due to the rise of the Maritime Silk Road and the policy of seclusion in Ming and Qing Dynasties,the Land Silk Road had went down,a great concept about the Silk Road Economic Belt Strategy that proposed by President Xi has revived the ancient Silk Road.Developing tourism is not only conducive to the development of the entire economic belt,but also helps to promote the spirit of the Silk Road.There are many node cities along the Silk Road Economic Belt,and the tourism economic development between the cities of each node is very different.Therefore,in-depth study of the characteristics and influencing factors of tourism economic differences in each node of the Silk Road Economic Belt is propitious to the rational development of tourism resources and the coordinated development of regional tourism economy.Firstly,taking the 20-node cities on the north,middle and south lines of the Silk Road Economic Belt as the research object,this paper analyzes the time difference of the tourism economy of the cities around the Silk Road Economic Belt from 2007 to2016.Through the total tourism revenue,domestic tourism income,and tourism foreign exchange income indicators,the absolute difference is measured by the range and the standard deviation,and the relative difference is measured by the extreme ratio and the coefficient of variation.Secondly,calculate the ratio of the total tourism revenue of each node in the 2007-2016 Silk Road Economic Belt to the regional tourism average income,and select the two years of 2007 and 2016 to explore the spatial evolution characteristics of tourism economic divergence in each node city.Thirdly,the Nich index is used to measure the spatial evolution characteristics of tourism economic development speed,and the spatial evolution characteristics of tourism economic development speed in 2007-2011 and 2012-2016 are compared and analyzed.Fourthly,14 indicators are selected to form a comprehensive evaluation system.The principal component analysis function of SPSS 22.0 is used to comprehensively analyze the comprehensive development level of tourism economyin 20 cities in 2016,and to measure the differences in the comprehensive development level of tourism economy in each node in 2016,using Jenks(The natural fracture method)divides each node city into four categories.Fifth,make assumptions about the influencing factors of tourism economic differences,verify relevance,and propose corresponding countermeasures.Conclusions are as follows:(1)The absolute difference in tourism economy between the cities of the Silk Road Economic Belt in 2007-2016 has been expanding,the relative differences in tourism economy fluctuated up and down,and the overall trend showed a downward trend.(2)Through analysis,it is concluded that the tourism economic development of each node of the Silk Road Economic Belt is very uneven,showing a relatively significant spatial structure of the core circle,transition circle and radiation circle.The development speed of tourism economy in the node cities along the Silk Road Economic Belt is very uneven,showing that the mid-line cities are developing fast,the south line is slower,and the northern line is the slowest.(3)In 2016,the comprehensive level of tourism economic development in the20-node city of the Silk Road Economic Belt was divided into four categories,two tourism economically developed regions(Beijing and Chongqing),and three tourism economically developed regions(Wuhan,Chengdu,Changsha)..There are 8 tourism economy areas(Kunming,Nanning,Hefei,Nanchang,Xi'an,Zhengzhou,Harbin,Changchun).There are 7 areas with backward tourism economy(Lhasa,Urumqi,Lanzhou,Xining,Yinchuan,Hohhot,Shenyang).(4)The difference in tourism economy between the nodes of the Silk Road Economic Belt is mainly affected by tourism resource endowment,regional economic development,tourism reception capacity and local policy factors.Four countermeasures can be taken for the influencing factors: integrating tourism resources and strengthening regional cooperation;prioritizing economic development,consolidating the economic base;improving reception facilities and improving reception capacity;formulating relevant policies and increasing capital investment.
