Abstract:
By using Theil Index and Regional Separation Factors, this paper measures comprehensively the regional difference of Zhejiang province’s inbound tourism from 2000 to 2010, and puts forward the countermeasures to reduce the regional differences. Some conclusions can be drawn as follows: The overall difference of Zhejiang province’s inbound tourism which shows a gradually shrinking trend is obvious. The difference in area which gives more contribution is dominant among the regional differences in the inbound tourism development. In the meantime, the difference in the northeast region is more significant than the difference in the southwest region of Zhejiang province. Furthermore,with the calculation of Regional Separation Factors, the divided interval is constituted to the limit of 2003. The separation factors of the northeast and southwest regions reducing from 2000 to 2003 present a convergence appearance,while the factors increasing gradually from 2003 to 2010 show a divergence phenomenon. The above indicates that the spatial pattern of the northeast region of Zhejiang province forms a polarization trend evidently. Finally, some optimization countermeasures are given to reduce the regional differences in the development of inbound tourism.
