Study on Status, Problems and Countermeasures of Developing Popular Science Tourism of Geoparks in Yunnan, China

Abstract

Tourism development of Yunnan geoparks keeps in the stage of "sightseeing tour" and the real "popular science tourism" keeps in the explorative stage, thus it has a series of problems, such as uncorrelation between tourist attractions and geology, uncorrelation between geologic observation spot and tourism, and insufficient scientificity of commentary, etc. By aiming at these problems, corresponding countermeasures and suggestion were proposed.
