Tourism Potential

The reservoir-related tourism industry has been developed for leisure purposes since the 1970s and has gained popularity worldwide. To promote reservoir-related tourism in China, the Chinese government launched a “top-down” project titled “Water Conservation Scenic Spot” (WCSS) in 2001. However, because of the lack of reasonable planning, innovative ideas, and effective governance, there are some problems with WCSS constraining its development. To deal with those problems, it is necessary to have a holistic understanding of the WCSS situation. This study analyses the origin, status, opportunities, and challenges of WCSS development in China. The results show a trend of periodic increase in the number of WCSSs between 2001 and 2016, and WCSS development is unbalanced regarding regions and types. Moreover, the main issues for the WCSS include the failure to follow WCSS guidelines in practice, weak awareness of the scientific educational function, monotonous planning and construction, a lack of cultural preservation, insufficient funding, weak marketing, damaging of natural resources, destruction of clusters of animals and plants, land surface erosion, and landscape pollution. These adverse effects can be alleviated by strengthening supervision and fostering balanced development, promoting education and protecting cultural resources, distributing funding and enlarging popularity, controlling the amount of tourism, and avoiding overexpansion. Overall, the findings of this study can encourage the development of WCSSs in the future and are of significance in supporting the reservoir-related tourism industry.

Abstract At present, the development of tourism is a priority for the Carpathian region. However, the unwise construction and lack of a clear strategy for the development of recreational infrastructure has led to environmental problems in some mountain areas. An important component of diversity and the balanced development of the tourism industry is the possibility of fast analysis of the recreational potential availability and the future functions of the recreational facility. In this study, the formation of a common model of tourism potential on the example of several administrative districts was substantiated. The presented research algorithm includes: 1) conditional division of recreational resources for this region into natural-landscape, historical and artistic, socio-economic tourist resources with their internal classification; 2) spatial location of tourist resources; 3) creation of a species intensity scheme of tourist resources, which will become the basis for the creation of the urban development concept in these territories.

The City

Zonouz city and its neighboring counties, including three counties and eleven areas, are located in the southern area of the Araz River in Azerbaijan and northwest of Iran. This city has many capabilities in terms of geography, civilization, and tourism, which can be considered as an advantage in urban development. The development in the city is a process occurs by relying on introversion and utilizing extroversion, among which urban regeneration can be highlighted. Thus, recognizing the components of empowerment is one of the main purposes. Applying the rules and observing the necessary principles reduce costs and increase productivity in development. The present study aims to study and compare the advantages of the city, which have more centrality and relative abilities than the peripheral cities, with those cities having the same geographical and cultural characteristics, and the least distance from the city, in an integrated and complementary collection in the tourism industry. Considering that different multi-city managers should similarly play a role, the appropriate reason for their participation can be balanced development and utilization from common interests. This benefit can be achieved based on the management and exploitation of natural and historical attractions, the results of which are synergy and improved performance and exploitation power from the interests. To this aim, the tourist abilities and natural and tourist attractions of the complex are identified and studied, and the results of the analysis are analyzed. The conclusion can be made based on using natural geography and cultural heritage advantages to protect historical buildings and textures better, along with a balanced development of a series of neighboring cities.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore how creative-cultural hotels can achieve sustainable service design through the development of a holistic conceptual framework. Design/methodology/approach The authors created this framework using a qualitative exploratory multi-case study of four creative-cultural hotels in Taiwan. The framework comprises strategic, organizational and interface levels to describe the design process and implementation of service offerings that co-create value within a multifaceted network of actors. Findings The findings of this study show that incorporating local arts and culture into sustainable service design can generate unique value and experiences for customers. From the perspective of sustainable development, these hotels seek to add value by using local creative and cultural resources to ensure that they have a sound commercial base from which to showcase their cultural features. As such, this study recommends that the hotel industry shift its focus to a paradigm that provides a strategic and sustainability-framed vision to create value for society while protecting local natural and cultural resources. Originality/value This multilevel model reframes the development of customer value constellations through a holistic understanding of user experience, eco-design practice, service encounters aligned with user touchpoints and front-line employee capabilities. To integrate the perspectives of both service providers and their customers, the proposed model embeds these stakeholders within a single model through the vehicle of local value co-creation. This holistic framework can assist in designing sustainable service within the hospitality industry to deliver better services and customer experiences. The findings provide an illustration of how the proposed multilevel sustainable-development-oriented service design framework can serve as a useful tool in guiding hotels toward corporate sustainability.

В современных социально-экономических условиях изучение сущности термина "туристский потенциал" является актуальным. Правильная оценка туристского потенциала страны или ее отдельно взятого региона, и прежде всего его корректное определение является ключевым аспектом, характеризующим успешность функционирования туристского сектора в узком спектре и экономики страны в целом. Развитие туристской отрасли влияет на такие ключевые экономические показатели страны, как платежный баланс, совокупный экспорт и другие. Совершенствование инфраструктуры с учетом возрастающих потребностей туристов, приток иностранной валюты и инвестиций, повышение занятости населения посредством создания новых рабочих мест. Грамотно реализованный туристский потенциал имеет положительное влияние и на социально-культурную сферу, удовлетворяя духовные и физические потребности людей. Рассмотрена трактовка термина "потенциал" учеными в различных областях науки. В результате авторами дополнено и сформулировано собственное определение термина "туристский потенциал". Также в статье изучен ряд методов оценки туристского потенциала и построены статистические зависимости, характеризующие его развитие в среднесрочном периоде. В качестве оценочных показателей выбрана динамика количества посетителей по въездному и выездному видам туризма.
