According to the results, expenditure efficiency and its important domains are able to be recognized and verified under current economic and social circumstances. As a result, in order to optimize the expenditure structure, we suggest that financial strengthen, existing economic and geography resource, as well as the requirements of tourism development for tourism demand in the new stage should be combined.
