ABSTRACT KEYWORDS The environmentally responsible behaviour (ERB) facilitates the sustainability of Environmentally responsible tourism destinations. This study aims to identify the key impact factors to promote behaviour; personality traits; visitors’ ERB in urban park and examine the impact mechanism. A total of 567 satisfaction with interpretive visitors were surveyed in Beijing’s Yuyuantan Urban Park. Structural equation service; place attachment; structural equation modelling results indicate that personality traits are the most important factors that modelling; Beijing affect visitors’ ERB, while the effect of how satisfaction with interpretive services plays upon visitors’ ERB using place attachment as a mediator. Openness traits positively affect satisfaction with experiential services and general behaviour. Additionally, implications in urban park management are provided.
