dc.description.abstract | Purpose – This paper aims to identify and determine regional tourism axes in Hormozgan Province, Iran, as
a region with significant potential
Design/methodology/approach – The research method is quantitative and uses the fuzzy accreditation
tool and TOPSIS model; the identification, determination and ranking of regional tourism axes have been
performed by analyzing the spatial distribution of tourismattractions in the GIS environment.
Findings – The results show that given the capacities of Hormozgan Province, at least 15 axes are
recognizable. This paper highlights regional tourism planning as a tool for urban and rural socio-economic
development in potential provinces such Hormozgan.
Originality/value – This study provides a number of practical implications for regional tourism
development as follows: it identifies some of the most important potential axes in Hormozgan Province, which
can be considered as investment areas in the national and regional tourism development strategy. The spatial
results of this study could be embedded in all urban and rural developmental plans in the province. Tourism
investment should shift its spatial concentration from the spot approach, especially islands and cities, to the
axis approach while equipping those axes as comprehensive spatial strategic regional tourism plans. Sectoral
tourism in each sector including sports, economy and nature could be planned as if sectoral institutions and
organizations are going to develop their own tourism goals. | vi |
