This paper shows light on the concept of smart tourism destination as a future of tourism development, especially in the context of problems associated with developing countries. This study substantiates the case of smart tourism development in mountain destinations as an affordable and needed future of the contemporary era. This conceptual study is based on secondary literature on Smart Cities, Smart Tourism Destinations, and Tourism in Himachal Pradesh. The Indian state of Himachal Pradesh has been considered as a study area to acknowledge major tourism-related challenges, especially in mountain locations. Consequently, the dots are connected between existing challenges and solutions that smart tourism holds. It turns out that for the development of mountain tourism destinations such as Himachal Pradesh in the Indian Himalayas, investments in smart infrastructure are required. By developing smart infrastructure, a new USP can be made, a supportive environment for new local businesses, new employment opportunities, enhanced tourist experience and an overall raised standard of living for locals. Considering all factors, it leads to a highly competitive tourism destination. All tourism destinations located in the Himalayan mountains show somewhat the same tourism challenges as Himachal Pradesh, India. Therefore, this paper brightens the path of destination planners towards the development agenda of smart tourism destinations and shows how smart tourism infrastructure can be deployed for better management of tourism destinations.

Ubiquitous tourism information systems are more and more required to provide cultural contents comprising material heritage, performing art, folk tradition, handicraft or customs of everyday life, along with traditional tourist information about hotel facilities and infrastructure.

본 연구는 한국과 중국관광객이 인천 차이나타운을 관광할 때 느끼는 만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대한 쌍방 비교를 통해, 양국가 관광객에게 어떤 요인들이 차별적으로 중요한 영향을 미치는지 알아보았다. 한국과 중국대학생을 중심으로 연구한 1:1 설문결과 인적 서비스는 한국관광객에게 보다 큰 영향력을 행사하였고, 반면 중국관광객에게는 정보서비스가 보다 크게 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 이러한 차이는 한국 관광객에게는 서비스가, 중국 관광객에는 관광지 및 시설에 대한 정보전달이 보다 중요한 역할을 하는데 기인한 것으로 여겨지며, 이러한 차이점은 향후 한 중 관광객간의 만족요인에 대한 반응이 상이하여 관련업계 종사자에게 다양한 형태로 의미에 대한 개발 가능성을 제공할 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구는 다양한 빅데이터를 지역관광 정책에 활용한 제주특별자치도의 사례를 토대로, 관광빅데이터의 활용성과와 과제를 제시하였다. 가장 큰 활용성과는 관광빅데이터를 통해 급변하는 관광트랜드와 관광업계의 동향을 시의성있고 구체적으로 파악할 수 있게 되었고, 기존 관광통계를 정교화하는데 활용할 수 있었다는 점이다. 여기서 더 나아가 제주는 빅데이터의 활용 범위를 관광 현상 이해의 수준을 넘어 실시간 맞춤형 서비스 플랫폼 구축까지 영역을 확장하였다. 이것이 가능했던 이유는 데이터 수집 및 분석 환경 구축과 산·관·학의 협력적 거버넌스가 조성되었기 때문이다. 향후 해결해야 할 과제는 첫째, 민간 데이터셋 위주의 분석으로 예산 의존적이라는 한계와 둘째, 스마트관광의 궁극적 목표인 개인맞춤형서비스 구축을 위한 개인수준 데이터 수집 인프라, 개인정보보호법 등의 제도적인 문제의 해결이다. 마지막으로, 데이터 분석과 데이터 연계에 도달하기까지의 전문성과 기술적 한계들이 남아 있다.

Agricultural tourism is a new kind of industry, which combined agriculture with tourism. It not only has the productive function, but also has the function of improving the quality of ecological environment and supplying people with sightseeing, leisure, vacation. Agricultural tourism is a new kind of industry from the amalgamation of agriculture and tourism: it is based on farm work, characterized by agricultural management, combines agriculture and tourism, and includes the city as a market-place. It satisfies tourist demand with food, lodging, excursions, shopping and entertainment provided by agricultural places and agricultural products. After combining the substance of this study with the primary sources regarding the development of agricultural tourism, I suggest plans for the development of local agricultural tourism on the basis of sustainable tourism theory in case of the Inner Mongolia region. To conduct research, various data such as literature research and surveys are collected and analyzed. According to the result of the research, the Inner Mongolia region has great-wealthy resources for agricultural tourism. However, they have problems as well such as lack of funds, low infrastructure, low business-mind level, low management-mind, the scarcity of mid-supporting organizations for research and education, low awareness, and low service level of the agricultural tourism. In order to solve these problems, have to strengthen publicity, strengthen the county and city communication, educates continuously profession talented person, establish related laws and regulations, increase the integrity of infrastructure. As a developing industry, agricultural tourism is a new field of study which needs more encouraging research. The agricultural tourism of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has only just started development resulting in a limited amount of information available for this study. Future planned work entails a continuous in-depth study of Chinese agricultural tourism, considering Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in particular.
