Abstract

The construction and transportation of Shaanxi along the Yellow River Highway, linking the scenic spots along the Yellow River in Yulin, Yan'an, Hancheng and Weinan, is known as the most beautiful “Highway 1”, which makes the integration of tourism development along the Yellow River in Shaanxi feasible. Based on the point-axis development theory, the spatial distribution of tourism resources, tourism traffic structure and tourism development structure in the area along the Yellow River in Shaanxi Province are analyzed. On this basis, the location quotient index is used to determine the first-level and second-level tourist node cities, and the first-level axis and second-level axis of tourism development are defined, and the development model of “two-level point axis, three major tourist areas” along the Yellow River in Shaanxi Province is constructed. The research conclusion can provide theoretical support and scientific guidance for Guanzhong region to promote the integration development of northern Shaanxi region along the Yellow River Highway and the construction of Shaanxi provincial tourism demonstration.
