The paper presents a new methodology for assessing cultural potential of the territory, based on the inventory of cultural tourism resources, including projects and activities at various levels, and the mathematical apparatus, which ensures the objectivity of counting, ceteris paribus. An attempt is made to approach to the economic understanding of the cultural potential of the territory: the farther from the center of the region the municipality is located, the more money will be needed for the development and the large costs borne both the businessman and tourist for the “development” of the territory. The distance of the municipality from the centre of the region erected in a constant and used as the most significant factor in the formula. According to the results of using the technique presents the ranking of territories of the Perm edge on a high, relatively high, high, medium, low and lowest. On this basis, each municipality will be able to engage in rational optimization of their position in the ranking of and the regional authorities will have the possibility of objective funding primarily those areas that are the leaders of the rating and the poles of the growth of cultural tourism in the province. The method confirmed the following hypothetical initial submission. For such a complex from the point of view of tourism climatic areas as Perm region, cultural tourism is not seasonal, it almost year-round, and therefore more promising, even compared to active, which is trying to make a bid for regional power. Moreover, the potential of cultural tourism may be higher than the overall tourism potential of the region, in the case where the display object (resource) active tourism is complemented by animation or theatre, or used in a major cultural event, such as festival. Thus, the method permits to assess the cultural potential of the territory, both within the region and the individual municipalities to identify leaders and priority of their financing and entrepreneurial activity.

Songkhla Lake

Songkhla Lake Basin has a long history of at least 6,000 years and has a wide variety of tourism resources including nature, history, beliefs, culture and various traditions of the local people. It covers 3 provinces, the whole area of Phatthalung, 12 districts of Songkhla and 2 districts of Nakhon Si Thammarat Province. It has an area of approximately 8,727 square kilometers. There are many tourist attractions because the basin has a long history through different eras, natural, historic, ancient sites, and the culture of the local people. In 2018, both Thai and foreign tourists visited Songkhla and Phatthalung, which is the main area of Songkhla Lake Basin. The total number of tourists that came was 7,628,813 and 1,641,841 and an income of 68,252.64 and 3,470.96 million baht was generated from each province, respectively (Ministry of Tourism and Sports, 2020). Although Songkhla Lake Basin has various tourist attractions, the promotion of tourism with the involvement of government agencies in the past mainly focused on promoting tourism along with the tourist attractions rather than encouraging tourists to experience and learn the culture of the people living in the area; the culture that reflects the uniqueness of the people in the south. This study, therefore, aims to find creative tourism activities in SLB in order to increase the value of tourism resources, create tourism activities that are aligned with the resources available in the community and increase the number of tourists in the area. Data for this study were collected using a secondary source of data collection method. It was done through a literature review of related documents, texts, magazines, and research which focus on Songkhla Lake Basin as a guideline for designing tourism activities. The field survey was done through twelve community-based tourism sites in SLB to find creative tourism activities. Data on each activity were collected in detail by interviewing the tourism community leaders and the local people. Content analysis was used to describe the individual open-ended questions by focusing on the important issues and the information obtained was presented as a narrative. Keywords: Songkhla Lake Basin, Creative Tourism, Local Wisdom
