Abstract
In order to explore the dialectical relationship between the world natural heritage sites protection and tourism development, this paper takes Wulong karst world natural heritage site as an example and uses tourism ecological footprint model to evaluate the impact of tourism development on heritage protection. As a result, tourism development can indeed impact on heritage protection, but also endows heritage protection with more realistic possibilities. World natural heritage protection and tourism development are not opposites to each other. By limiting tourism speed development and enhancing ecological compensation, the protection of world heritage sites and tourism development may be unified in the long run. To be specific, the sustainable development of world natural heritage can be realized by limiting the degree of tourism development, limiting the number of tourists, guiding tourists to transform consumption, reducing the ecological footprint of tourism, transferring tourism ecological footprint, and improving the ecological carrying capacity.
