The Spatial Distribution, Influencing Factors, and Development Path of Inbound Tourism in China—An Empirical Analysis of Market Segments Based on Travel Motivation

Abstract: According to China’s tourism statistics, the inbound tourism market is composed of eight types of travel motivations (sightseeing, leisure, business meeting (business-m), visiting relatives and friends (visiting-rf), shopping, religious worship (religious-w), culture and sports (culture-s), and health care (health-c)), and the spatial distribution of each type of travel motivation is significantly different. Four inbound sub-markets (foreigners, Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan) were selected as our research objec… Show more

“…Researchers have adopted various methods to measure the impact of each of these factors on local tourism activities. For traditional tourism statistics, researchers use the ANP model [35], statistical analysis [32], stepwise regression and clustering [45], and other means for analysis. For digital footprint data, researchers use the exponential random graph model [46] and complex network index [20] to measure the importance of factors.…”

“…As a core component of tourism, scenic spots and their spatial distribution and accessibility not only determine the spatial behavior of tourists, but also profoundly affect the formulation of regional tourism development strategies [ 2 ]. Therefore, research on scenic spots has been highly valued regionally and globally [ 3 ]. In addition, an expansion in the research of methodologies has occurred, especially related to the interpretation and classification [ 4 , 5 ], competition [ 6 , 7 ], tourists’ perception [ 8 , 9 ], and spatial distribution and evolution [ 10 – 12 ] of scenic spots.…”
