The tourist attractiveness is classified into natural environment characteristics and artificial characteristics. Natural environment characteristics imply that whether the region has beaches and national park and artificial characteristics imply that whether the region has regional festivals and resort-related infrastructure. By using a conditional logit model, we analyze the effect of tourist site attractiveness on tourists choice of tourist destinations. The effect of tourist site attractiveness on tourism visits and the travel expenditure is estimated by generalized least squares. According to the estimation result, tourists are more likely to select regions with beaches or national parks and regions with many festivals and resort-related infrastructure.
