The advantages and problems of eco-tourism development in Qinghai province

Qinghai as characterized by literary landscape mountain landscape tourist resource collection area and the collection of historical and cultural context of cultural tourism resources district, developing eco-tourism potential is huge. In recent years to promote the construction of ecological environment of Qinghai province as guide, pay attention to combining economic development and ecological protection, focus on building a green economy ecosystem, effectively promoting the province’s ecological, economic, environmental and social harmonious development, laid a good foundation for developing ecological tourism.

(A) To cultivate a number of tourist products

One is to create tourism products. Formation has to natural ecological and Humanities spirit perfect combination of classic masterpieces—ring Qinghai Lake scenery and sports tourism ring; to cool, and health, and ecological, and Humanities, and tourism for rich connotation of ring Xining “China summer are” tourism ring; to Tibetan railway for ties, to large tourism of thought development Qinghai-Tibet plateau unique of history culture, and bold of shanhe Lake, and rich of Plateau ecological, and rich of national style, and mystery of religious culture, tourism boutique—Tibetan railway world roof tourism with; to guide for core, to “QingQing Yellow River” for mainline, speed up development has Yellow River coastal of natural scenery, and salar style, and hot springs convalescence, and religious culture, tourism products, formation has Yellow River culture tourism with; while, development connection Dragon sheep Gorge, and laxiwa, and Nepalese that, and Li Jiaxia, and public primary Gorge, Cascade power station of Yellow River upstream hydropower Pearl industrial tourism with.

(B) Infrastructure enhancement

Nearly five years, the huge investment in Qinghai province, accumulated investment in fixed assets of 18.7715 trillion yuan. Highway mileage up to 5.13 million km, the highway from scratch, to the development of 215 km/h, the “two transverse three longitudinal and three road” skeleton of the completion of the basic road network. Opening of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, Lanqing railway double track electrification project is nearing completion, Shibaki, Sigma section of double track and electrification of the railway project and the three rivers in yushu airport started construction, Xining and Golmud airport improvement project is complete. Gongbo Gorge, Nina, and laxiwa, Jishi, and other large and medium hydropower station, geermu, Chase China electric power, gas power plant and Guan to 750,000 volts Ulan to Golmud 330,000 kV transmission project, transformation of rural power grids and yushu State power grid construction, and other key power projects have been completed or under construction, the basic realization of large power grid under the cover of each power.

However, judging from the present development situation, as a new idea and model of the tourism development, eco-tourism in Qinghai province has several outstanding problems to be resolved the following:

1, on the development of ecological tourism awareness issues. “Tourism is a smokeless industry” concept is still relatively popular, and in the process of development, some places emphasis on developing tourism resources, impact on the environment and resources at the expense of travel itself destroyed. When the tourists as inexhaustible tourism resources, unlimited wealth to consumption, on their gaps in knowledge and behaviour properly, will cause damage on the part of the tourist resources and pollution, increased and even intensify the contradiction between resources, environment and tourism.

High starting point, high standard of planning, is a prerequisite for sustainable development of ecological tourism and creating the basis for tourism. However, during development, attention to itself and for tourism-related industries in many parts of the layout planning, to the neglect of ecological construction planning. On the landscape design, did not fully reflect the human and ecological design, resulting in many of the buildings and atmosphere of the natural environment is not coordinated

3, scientific management mechanism. At present, the right to ownership, planning, development, in many spots set in one of the right, protection and development of its resources rely solely on financial investment and operating income, resources cannot be implement the most effective protection and long-term development, tourism management subject lacking vigor and vitality, there has been some resources spent heavily in renovation, some because of disorderly development resources long idle, and so many other issues. Infrastructure construction of 41 financial. Developing eco-tourism must have secured appropriate infrastructural investment, but owing to financial constraints, lead to scenic landscape more weak infrastructure, especially transportation, sewage facilities relatively backward, contradiction of tourism development and ecological environment protection more prominent. 51 Professional problems of eco-tourism. True meaning of eco-tourism have specialized requirements on product design, involving tourism, ecology, environmental science and economics, interdisciplinary knowledge, technology is more complicated. But for now can understand Knowledge Ecology and tourism, while correctly grasp the connotation of ecological tourism professionals and serious lack of management talent.
