Abstract

It is crucial to coordinate the relationship between cooperation and competition of urban tourism by comparing the difference of coastal cities tourism competitiveness.Six coastal cities around Bohai Sea are chose as study cases in this paper.The index system is divided into three parts which are actual competitiveness,environment based competitiveness and potential competitiveness.The score of each part is calculated by making a factor analysis.The contribution rate of each part's variance,which is used as weight in order to get the synthesized evaluations,is calculated by the method of mean squared deviation.The advantages and disadvantages of the coastal cities are compared on the basis of the synthesized evaluations.Then,according to above analysis,the integration policies including tourism resources,tourism products,tourism market,tourism space and tourism management are suggested.
