Approaches to the Development of Ecotourism on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau: The Aim Being Sustainable Growth

Abstract

The study features the necessity and feasibility of developing ecotourism on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and approaches to the region's sustainable growth. The biodiversity, rich natural resources, and distinctive cultural and religious assets that the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau boasts have made tourism greatly beneficial to the local economy, but the growth of tourism in the region has also caused damage to the local environment. The study hence provides solutions to the issue, putting forward plans for the sustainable growth of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
