Abstract

Health tourism is an important policy for "implementing a healthy China strategy." China has a vast territory, and different regions have different levels of economic development and market sizes. The implementation of policies requires evaluation of resources and rankings in order to proceed in an orderly manner. Forest scenic spots are an important carrier for realizing health tourism. However, the current researches seldom discuss the quantitative evaluation of health resources in forest scenic spots. This article aims to propose a quantitative model to help local scenic spots to scientifically identify key resources to promote health tourism. This study sorted out the evaluation criteria through literature review; then designed an evaluation model using the decision-making experiment and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method; finally, verified the operation processes of the model in a local scenic spot. The results show that the designed DEMATEL evaluation model can integrate expert opinions, calculate and convert data in the MS Excel software environment, and generate numerical and visual image information. These processes allow the scenic spot managers to identify key resources in an intuitive way, and find high-impact routs to plan corresponding constructions. This research provides a practical and easy-to-operate evaluation model, which can provide richer theoretical support and quantitative tools for promoting the development of healthy tourism in local scenic spots.
