Abstract

Taking Ankang as a typical case of edge-typed tourism city, we analyze the compactness, agglomeration, differentiation characteristics of its class-A tourist attractions spatial structures and explore the spatial path out of the edge of the plight for edge-typed tourism city, basing on the spatial statistical and mathematical methods such as compactness index, coefficient of variation, scale index, unevenness index and superiority index. The results indicated that: The degree of compactness and unevenness of Ankang class-A tourist attractions spatial distribution are high. Spatial clustering is significant. Differentiation characteristics in number, size, quality and influence of the Ankang class-A tourist attractions are different, but Hanbin District and Shiquan County have shown a clear advantage in all aspects. Formation of tourism center system which based on high-grade core tourist attractions may be the key for edge-typed tourism city to become an emerging core tourist destination.
