Abstract

With the vigorous development of the tourism industry, geoparks, as a distinctive category of tourist destinations, have gained increasing popularity among visitors owing to their unique natural landscapes and scientific value. Yunyang Longgang National Geopark, characterized by its spectacular karst tiankengs, extensive solution cave systems, and distinctive natural ecosystems, has emerged as a focal point for domestic and international tourists. Taking Yunyang Longgang Geopark as a case study, this research employs the perspective of cultural-tourism integration to analyze its current tourism status, identify critical challenges, and propose development strategies encompassing: infrastructure enhancement, increased community engagement, strengthened management and conservation of the park, and enrichment of its cultural connotations.
