Abstract

Based on the connotation of high-quality development theory, this paper establishes an evaluation index system for high-quality tourism development encompassing five dimensions: innovation, coordination, green, openness, and sharing. Entropy weight TOPSIS method is adopted to measure the high-quality tourism development level of 30 provinces in China. The findings reveal that from 2012 to 2019, the high-quality development level of China's tourism generally exhibited a steady upward trend, with a notable decline in 2020 due to the influence of the epidemic and other factors. However, the pace and extent of development vary significantly among provinces, showing an unbalanced trend. Regarding the sub-dimensions, the green dimension has seen significant growth, while the innovation, sharing, and coordination dimensions have experienced fluctuating advancements. The openness dimension warrants greater attention. Consequently, this paper proposes recommendations focusing on tourism resources, infrastructure development, and environmental protection to enhance the level of tourism development.
