Implications of Community Participation for Sustainable Development of Rural Tourism

Abstract

In order to pursue sustainable development, the concept of community participation is becoming more and more important for rural tourism, and community residents will become the main body of tourism development. Taking Yim Tin Tsai in Sai Kung, Hong Kong as a case study, this paper explores the various subjects of community participation in Yim Tin Tsai, analyses in depth the mode of community participation in Yim Tin Tsai in the process of rural restoration and tourism development, and explores the positive and negative factors affecting the community participation in the development of rural tourism in an attempt to provide corresponding research materials and references for the sustainable development of tourism and community participation in other rural areas.
