Rural tourism can be defined as the ‗country experience‘ which encompasses a wide range of attractions and activities that take place in agricultural or non-urban areas. Its essential characteristics include wide-open spaces, low levels of tourism development, and opportunities for visitors to directly experience agricultural and/or natural environments. Rural tourism is not just farm-based tourism. It includes farm-based holidays but also comprises special interest nature holidays and ecotourism, walking, climbing and riding holidays, adventure, sport and health tourism, hunting and angling, educational travel, arts and heritage tourism, and, in some areas, ethnic tourism. A major form of tourism is agritourism, which refers to, ―the act of visiting a working farm or any agricultural, horticultural or agribusiness operation for the purpose of enjoyment, education, or active involvement in the activities of the farm or operation.

  • Rural Tourism and the Reconstruction of Rural
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Health and Human Development RURAL TOURISM AND THE RECONSTRUCTION OF RURAL IDENTITY IN CHINA A Dissertation in Recreation, Park, and Tourism Management by Lan Xue 2015 Lan Xue Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2015 The dissertation of Lan Xue was reviewed and approved* by the following: Deborah L. Kerstetter Professor of Recreation, Park and Tourism Management Chair of the Graduate Program Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Garry Chick Professor of Recreation, Park and Tourism Management Carter Hunt Assistant Professor of Recreation, Park and Tourism Management Anouk Patel-Campillo Assistant Professor of Rural Sociology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT Tourism has become a worldwide phenomenon and an increasingly recognized tool for regional development, especially in remote and underdeveloped areas (Fleischer & Felsenstein, 2000). In China, tourism development has been used as a pro-poor strategy by local government to diminish poverty and increase the living standards of rural residents (Su, 2001). Although the economic and social aspects of rural tourism development have been widely examined and debated, little attention has been paid to the impact of rural tourism development on the cultural construct of rural life (i.e., residents’ rural identities). In this study I explored the role of tourism development in changing rural identities in the context of China, which has been experiencing rapid urbanization and rural reconstructing processes in recent years. To understand the features of local residents’ rural identity change and its underlying mechanism, I conducted a case study in Chongdu Valley, a popular and pioneering rural tourist destination in the middle of China from June to August 2014.

  • Sustainable Rural Tourism and Management
    G.J. C.M.P., Vol. 2(4):115-120 July-August, 2013 ISSN: 2319 – 7285 SUSTAINABLE TOURISM AND MANAGEMENT: A RAPID CHANGE AND REVIEW Godavari Jange Research Scholar, Dept. of Economics, Gulbarga University, Gulbarga Abstract The success of the tourism sector in the postwar period has resulted in an industry which is characterized not only by growth but also by rapid change as many as 75 per cent of the world’s poor people live in rural areas. Top tourism destinations, particularly in developing countries, include national parks, wilderness areas, mountains, lakes, and cultural sites, most of which are generally rural. Thus tourism is already an important feature of the rural economy in these specific sites. It is self-evident that tourism will never come to dominate all rural areas, particularly in the developing world – there are vast swathes of rural areas for which tourism is not relevant for the foreseeable future. Between these two extremes are poor rural areas with some tourism potential, and an urgent need to develop whatever economic potential they have. Thus, an important question is whether more can be done to develop tourism within such rural areas, as a way of dispersing the benefits of tourism and increasing its sustainable rural tourism as a phenomenon and with a review of literature on rural tourism and rural development. Further the article brings the rural tourism industry, poverty impact, respect for nature and local cultures, attentive use of natural resources, sound working conditions, hospitality, supporting local economies, best local products: food, handicraft, culture, sustainable buildings and facilities etc.

Therefore, the present study examines the relationship between community empowerment and STD, along with the mediating role played by community support for tourism. Using social exchange theory, this research establishes theoretical relationships between vital variables for STD. A survey of empirical study was undertaken, and data were collected from 353 local residents in the northern area of Pakistan. The results for data analyses demonstrated a significant relationship between community empowerment and STD initiatives, and community support for tourism was shown to partially mediate the relationship between the two variables.

The emergence of rural tourism began to bloom initiated in various regions in Indonesia, including the Sindulang Village Area. The development of rural tourism is still fluctuating; this is thought to be a result of the still weak institutions at the local scale of the tourist villages. This situation then demands the existence of implementing organization that has independence in management. The development of the Sindulang Tourism Village carries a traditional concept which involves the local community in its management. Efforts to increase the capacity of all elements involved in the development of rural tourism are carried out by the village government. This study aims to assess the capacity building strategies in order to achieve the development potential of tourism villages in Sindulang. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach of a case study.
