Abstract
This work utilizes an expert-based framework for the hybrid of in-depth interviews, Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM), Analytic Network Process (ANP), Weighted Linear Combination (WLC) to evaluate cultural tourism strategies for Fucheng Historical District in Tainan City, Taiwan. A set of indicators were proposed through in-depth interviews with experts. Then, FDM was employed to select criteria, sub-criteria. The weight-based computation through ANP demonstrated that historical and cultural value is highly prioritized in criteria, whereas cultural assets and preservation of historical buildings are significant sub-criteria. In addition, we find that “cultural and creative clusters” is a prioritized strategy that should be adopted in historic-route-based cultural tourism. Finally, WLC indicated that Route VI is the most suitable route to organize “cultural and creative clusters”. In order to call for the sustainable implementation of tourism development, the proposed modelling approach is an effective tool that provides a comprehensive understanding to develop tourism strategies.
