“…The spatial diffusion of the bath industry mainly takes the bathing culture export city as the radiation center. It spreads to the surrounding cities in the adjacent diffusion mode, forming a state of contiguous development (Xue et al, 2023a , 2023b ). Fig.…”

“…The bath industry has multiple attributes, such as economic, health (Zhao et al, 2021 ), and cultural communication (Xue et al, 2023a , 2023b ), which serve as an essential industry to improve people's life quality and stimulate socio-economic development (Ibem and Amole 2013 ; Xue et al, 2018 ). In addition, the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) proposes to 'ensure a healthy lifestyle and promote the well-being of people of all ages' (United Nations, 2015 ).…”
The bath industry has multiple attributes, such as economic, health, and cultural communication. Therefore, exploring this industry's spatial pattern evolution is crucial to forming a healthy and balanced development model. Based on POI (Points of Interest) and population migration data, this paper uses spatial statistics and radial basis function neural network to explore the spatial pattern evolution and influencing factors of the bath industry in mainland China. The results show that: (1) The bath industry presents a strong development pattern in the north, south-northeast, and east-northwest regions and weak development in the rest of the country. As a result, the spatial development of new bath space is more malleable. (2) The input of bathing culture has a guiding role in developing the bath industry. The growth of market demand and related industries has a specific influence on the development of the bath industry. (3) Improving the bath industry's adaptability, integration, and service level are feasible to ensure healthy and balanced development. (4) Bathhouses should improve their service system and risk management control during the pandemic.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
