Research on Development Mechanism of Tourism Industrial Cluster Based on the “Three Chains” Collaboration

Abstract

It is a new research perspective to study the development mechanism of tourism industrial cluster based on the “industrial value chain”, “environmental value chain”, “spatial value chain”, and “three chains” collaboration. In this paper, authors analyze the fundamental concepts of “industrial value chain”, “environmental value chain” and “spatial value chain” of tourism industrial cluster, then build a “three chains” value matrix, and conduct a deep research on its development path. On this base, authors further probe into the internal system of tourism industrial cluster, especially lay stress on analyzing the core of tourism industrial cluster’s sustainable development, i.e. the “three chains” collaboration, establish a theoretical model for “three chains” collaboration development, and discuss the development mechanism of tourism industrial cluster.
