China sustainable development tourism market trends and structure

Abstract

In the current context of booming global tourism, China's tourism industry has developed at an even faster pace, driving rapid economic growth. However, this has exerted profound impacts on the ecological environment, socio-cultural environment, and economy. Faced with multiple challenges such as global climate change, overpopulation in tourist areas, and the risk of cultural heritage loss, transitioning to a sustainable tourism model has become a core policy direction for the Chinese government. This study focuses on modern strategies in China's sustainable tourism sector, covering key issues including regulatory frameworks, green technology applications, ecotourism development, and balancing economic benefits with natural resource conservation. The paper will explore trends and structural patterns in China's sustainable tourism market under these circumstances, offering relevant research findings and proposing thought-provoking suggestions.
