Research on Spatial Distribution Characteristics and Correlation Degree of the Historical and Cultural Towns (Villages) in China

Historical and Cultural Towns (Villages) (HCTVs) are the important parts in the recordation of the traditional culture, folk customs and architectural art in China. However, with the rapid development of the economy and rural urbanization, these towns and villages are faced with a series of problems, such as traditional features lost, traditional architecture destroyed and the lack of a long-term comprehensive and effective plan for scientific conservation measures. As a result, these historic heritages and their surroundings are in a serious crisis and will be destroyed to a certain extent. This paper chose 799 HCTVs as objects of this study, which were published by the Department of Housing Construction. The distribution features and mechanism have been analyzed with thesupport of GIS technology. In addition, the spatial correlation between elevation, stream, transportation, traditional culture and language was also explained through spatial overlay analysis. Through the statistical comparison and cluster analysis, it explored natural and human factors with the influence of HCTV distribution. The purpose is to help us make selection more reasonable and offer a reference of development of regional tourism for the future. The results showed that: (1) The spatial distribution of HCTVs clearly varies among different regions of China, and four concentrated typical areas are found in the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan border area, southeast coastal zone, Sichuan-Chongqing-Guizhou border area and Hunan-Guangxi border area. (2) The distribution characteristics have a peculiar style in the countryside and have a trend of cluster around a geographic line (e.g., a traffic line, a river) and a small town. (3) The HCTV has different characteristics in spatial form, river system distribution, regional culture and transportation system. The majority of them are distributed along the river and are cultural centers, traffic hubs and birthplace of civilizations in history. (4) Natural geographical environment, current population distribution patterns, level of regional economic development, accumulation of historic and cultural heritages, as well as rules and standards in the definition of HCTV, are the main factors affecting the spatial distribution. The purpose of this paper is to help us select more reasonable criteria and rules in the process of HCTV selection.

Assessing the Combined Effects of Transportation Infrastructure on Regional Tourism Development in China Using a Spatial Econometric Model (GWPR)

Transportation infrastructure plays an important role in tourism, and the spatial econometric model (GWPR) can offer quantitative support for regionalized development policies in transportation infrastructure. Panel data from 30 provinces were collected for a decade before the COVID-19 pandemic. We show that the GWPR model is a superior tool for assessing the combined impact of transportation infrastructure on tourism and its spatial heterogeneity. The effects of transportation infrastructure on tourism have historically been overwhelmingly positive, with the positive effect of high-speed rail expanding over the decade, while the positive effect of air travel contracted. The combined effects of transportation infrastructure vary across space and time. Additionally, the evolution of the effects exhibits spatial heterogeneity. The 30 provinces in this study are categorized into five types, and targeted implementation strategies for transportation infrastructure are formulated.

Sustainable tourism development in mountain regions. The case study of the Jabel Mesaad, Algeria

The natural environment is one of the most important resources for tourism development. Recently, a new type of tourism has emerged, especially based on nature. A group has emerged in Algeria and elsewhere who prefer to spend their holidays in order to escape the noise and crowds of the city and enjoy the beauty and purity of nature and the diversity of the aesthetics of its landscapes. You can also take advantage of everything related to the specificity of the place and local cultures. Algeria is one of the countries that seeks to achieve this trend. It has great mountain tourism potential that can be exploited to advance and upgrade the sector. Hence the mountain region has made a mecca for visitors according to the unique characteristics of each region. Planning is a frequently used term both in tourism and elsewhere. And "has become a feature of the times" (Abboudi, 2013)
 In this study, we dealt with a topic that aims to identify and limit the most important indicators of mountain tourism in the Jabal Mesaad region using the Delphi technique. This technique was applied through two gradual phases, where the first phase included an open questionnaire question aimed at testing the pulse of experts in determining the indicators they deem appropriate for the development of tourism in mountain areas within the framework of sustainable tourism. After analyzing the various responses received in the questionnaires, we obtained (52) indicators according to the economic, social and psychological dimensions of tourism.
 (39) indicators that comply with the conditions required in the second phase were selected and accepted, including (19) indicators of the environmental dimension dominating the rest of the indicators, followed directly by the indicators of the economic dimension with (10) indicators, then the indicators of the social dimension with (10) indicators. According to the criteria adopted by the World Tourism Organization, we note that all indicators, both quantitative and qualitative, have the characteristics of à good index.

Innovations and Tourism Regions: are Innovations Perceived as A Problem in Regional Development in European Tourism?

This article examines innovative aspects of the development of tourism regions in Europe. The article aims to determine the intensity of the perception of innovation in the tourism region as a problem in its development. The ambition of the article is to assess the problems in the development of tourism regions in Europe in the field of innovation as a possible starting point for optimizing changes in local and regional tourism policy. The research analyses the positions of 95 regional tourism experts from 17 European countries. The database was based on a databank of 150 representatives of academia and 275 representatives of regional tourism organizations. To analyse the properties of categorical data and the relationships between them, we used Gamma, Kendall’s Tau-b, Somers’ D C|R, Spearman correlation coefficient, Phi Coefficient, Contingency Coefficient, Cramer’s V and the decision tree algorithm. The maturity of the innovation environment of tourism regions and their level of development influence the perception of innovations as a problem in their development. Southern European tourism regions perceive innovation as a problem in their development most intensively. Tourism regions with stronger innovation activity have a well-established quality management system and a comprehensive and systematically addressed supply of seasonal and off-season products. Tourism regions ranked in the emerging innovator group perceive the specified problems in the implementation of innovations more intensively. This reflects the lack of coordination of the product portfolio, both in terms of range and quality, in countries where the innovation environment is poorly developed. A key recommendation to mitigate the perception of innovations as a problem in the development of Europe’s tourism regions is to focus attention on the implementation of regional policy instruments that stimulate the participation of tourism in the synergy effects of the existing innovation environment of the economy.

ІННОВАЦІЙНІ ІНСТРУМЕНТИ МАРКЕТИНГОВИХ СТРАТЕГІЙ РОЗВИТКУ ТУРИЗМУ НА РЕГІОНАЛЬНОМУ РІВНІ

The article summarizes the scientific and practical approaches to implementing marketing strategies for regional tourism development and identifies and characterizes their essential innovative tools. Territorial marketing strategies have recently become a topical subject of scientific research and a popular tool for promoting regions and increasing their competitiveness. Regional development marketing strategies are initiatives aimed at promoting and improving a specific region's economic and social conditions. The application of such elements of regional tourism development marketing strategies as niche tourism, digital platforms, and storytelling is substantiated. A niche tourism strategy targets specific market segments, such as adventure tourism, ecotourism, or cultural tourism. Tourism regions can use digital platforms to interact with visitors and collect data about their preferences and behavior. By analyzing this data, you can better understand your target market and develop more effective marketing strategies. Storytelling is a marketing strategy because people are more likely to be impressed by a place if they can emotionally connect with it. By creating and sharing stories about the region, its people, and its culture, you can connect emotionally with potential visitors and increase their likelihood of coming. The use of the described marketing tools within the strategies of niche tourism, digital platforms, and storytelling will make it possible shortly, after guaranteeing the safety of tourism in Ukraine, to ensure the rapid development of such promising types and directions of tourism as sustainable and ecological, adventure, cultural, health and healing tourism, and as well as immersive (virtual) and technological tourism. The proposed innovative marketing tools can be used to develop effective strategies for developing tourism at the regional level. However, the effectiveness of these strategies may vary depending on the context and regional characteristics. Implementing marketing strategies will become especially important in Ukraine after the war's end, but it is necessary to develop such strategies using innovative marketing tools now.
