九寨沟自然观光地旅游者地方感特征分析

地方感是人文主义地理学"人-地"关系研究中的重要内容.旅游是人们感知和认识环境的重要途径和方式,旅游者地方感是旅游者与旅游地环境相互作用的结果.通过构建旅游者地方感模型,以九寨沟为案例研究发现,①九寨沟旅游者的地方感在自然风景维度、社会人文维度、旅游功能维度和情感依恋维度等四个维度上存在一定差异:②九寨沟的自然风景与环境得到了旅游者较高的感知评价和普遍认同,是旅游者对九寨沟产生情感依恋的主要因素:③旅游者对九寨沟的社会人文环境的感知评价相对较低,并影响到对九寨沟旅游环境与功能的感知评价;④旅游者赋予九寨沟更多的是自然观光的意义和审美价值,九寨沟蕴涵的民俗文化体验的意义和历史价值并未能被旅游者所充分感知和认识,"藏族村寨"的地方特质没有得到旅游者的足够认同:⑤不同类型旅游者之间的感知评价差异集中在九寨沟的藏族风情、地方文化、旅游服务、游览秩序和旅游氛围等方面.旅游者地方感研究为自然资源和旅游地规划与管理提供了依据,具有一定的现实指导和借鉴意义.
