Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study identifies the process of historical development in hot spring resorts and investigates the current situation and relevant initiatives undertaken for stay-type tourism therein. These aspects pointed to the nature of the process of structural change in hot spring resorts, which have developed significantly since the Second World War,as well as the factors underlying this structural change. Thereafter, we conducted questionnaire and field surveys to develop an attractive stay structure for hot spring resorts. It was shown that to encourage travelers to stay in hot spring resorts,it is important to fully understand travelers’spatial and temporal axes. The results revealed that the attractiveness of the hot spring resorts- in terms of both the internal lodging environment and the areas externally surrounding the facilities -needs improvement.
