汶川地震遗迹旅游资源分类及特色评价

汶川地震造就了大量地震遗迹景观, 成为了地震科学研究及旅游开发活动的重要资源基础。对地震遗迹景观分类没有形成统一的认识, 广义与狭义视角并存, 两分法与一分法并现。充分考虑地震遗迹旅游资源成因及景观特征, 强调地震活动对地震遗迹旅游资源成景过程的影响及响应, 将其分为2个景观型, 4个景观域、6个景观段、13个景观元及若干典型地震遗迹景观; 重点介绍了北川县城地震遗址、都汶公路百花大桥、都江堰虹口深溪沟地表破裂、北川县唐家山堰塞湖、北川县城城西滑坡遗迹等典型地震遗迹旅游资源; 提炼出“国际意义的地质科学研究对象、全球吸引力的典型地震遗迹、国际品质的地震遗迹旅游资源开发条件、世界级震撼力的地震灾难性事件”四大特色。研究结论有利于地震遗迹旅游资源的保护及震区旅游恢复重建, 为高烈度山区地震专项旅游产品开发提供科学依据。

The Classification and Qualitative Evaluation of Wenchuan Earthquake Vestige Landscape for Tourism

NumerousEarthquake Vestige Landscape for Tourism had emerged after the May 12th, 2008 Ms 8.0 Wenchuan Earthquake which happened along the Longmen Shan fault zone on the eastern margin of Tibet and near the Sichuan foreland basin. The Earthquake Vestige Landscape for Tourism has become not only the key objects for scientific research but also the potential attractions for tourism development in the quake-stricken area. Previous studies of the classification of Earthquake Vestige Landscape failed to reach an agreement and hence there existed different perspectives and methodologies. Based on literature review and considering the formation and landscape types, the authors classified the Earthquake Vestige Landscape for Tourism into 2 groups and then subdivided them into 4 categories, 6 units and 13 basic elements. Quake sites such as Beichuan County, Baihua Bridge of Du-Wen Highway, and Ruptures of Shenxigou Valley in Dujiangyan City, Tangjiashan Earthquake Barrier Lake and Chengxi Landslides have been briefly described. Different Earthquake Vestige Landscape for Tourismhave different outstanding features, which are grouped into four types, namelygeoscience research objects with international significance, typical earthquake traces with global attractiveness, world-famous attractions with great potentials for exploitation, and world-shaking natural disaster spots with strong memorial sense. The findings are likely to provide some valuable scientific references for the development of disaster tourism and the revitalization of tourism industry in the quake-hit mountainous regions of west Sichuan.
