Characterization of Spatial and Temporal Evolution of Study Tour Bases in Zhejiang Province

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of study travel bases in Zhejiang Province in the past decade, with a view to providing useful references for the development of study travel. First, the number, distribution and changes of study and learning travel bases in Zhejiang Province were sorted out by collecting and analyzing relevant data. Secondly, the spatial distribution and evolutionary trend of study tour bases are visualized using geographic information system (GIS) technology, and the spatial evolutionary characteristics of the distribution of study tour bases are summarized. Finally, the main factors affecting the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of study and learning travel bases are discussed in the context of the actual situation, including tourism resources, traveler reception capacity, and socio-economic conditions. The study found that: 1) overall number growth of study and learning travel bases in Zhejiang Province from 2013 to 2023 can be divided into three stages. 2) There are obvious differences in the development of study and research travel bases between regions, Hangzhou has been in a dominant position, Ningbo and Wenzhou are developing rapidly, and the development of Huzhou, Jinhua and Lishui is relatively stable. 3)Zhejiang research and study travel bases are evolving towards the agglomeration form and are further strengthening. 4)Zhejiang research and study travel bases have shown a gradual change from scattered "patchy" to "patchy". 5)spatial pattern of the distribution of study and travel bases shows a north-south direction, and its center of gravity is relatively stable.
