Some famous mountains have become important resorts in our country. With the dozen years development, the
tourist flows in
them are considerable. The importance of the study on the tourist flows is remarkable.The author has made much on-the-spot investigation on the tourist flow in the Huangshan Mountain and obtained abundant the first- hand information He has made deep and detailed researches and brought forward some points: the tourist flows in mountain
resorts increase rapidly.but accidental factors can interfere with them more easily. The flows have a obvious seasonal difference. Every year the peaks of the flows are very distinct. In the typical
sightseeing mountain resorts, the peaks of the flows are genenally on lst May and ist Octorber, but in the religious mountain resorts, the peaks are always on religious festivals. The rate and hour distribution of the flows on the sight spots are determined by their value, function and location on the sightseeing routes.The space moving models of the flows are mainly restricted by the sightseeing routes, the value of sight spots and the cableways.At present. more and more tourists come to the famous mountains. but the tourist results are not very good. The tourist pollution appears at different degrees. among all the pollution, the tour rubbish is the most dangerous.It can be predicted that the tourist flows in mountain resorts will grow, but the spaces of the mountains are limited. So, it is very important to deal with the between the development of the flows and the mountain limit spaces. The author has following conflict suggestions to exploit new sight spots, to improve the sightseeing routes to decrease the flows seasonal difference. to make the flows move quickly and meanwhile to strengthen the cleaning of the tour rubbish. Finally, considering the limitation of the mountain tour environment, the system for the evaluation of the tour environment quality and the actual quantitative targets shall be established so as to supervise and protect the environment more effectively.
