ABSTRACT: With the help of ArcGIS analysis tools, this paper takes 244 national scenic spots in nine batches as the specific research objects, and uses the geographic concentration index research method to explore the spatial distribution status and influencing factors of scenic spots in China. The results show that: (1) National scenic spots are unevenly distributed across the country, and are generally clustered. There is one high-density area and six secondary high-density areas, and the number of scenic spots is more in the east and less in the west. (2) Scenic spots in different batches are unevenly distributed in space, showing a concentrated distribution state, and showing a trend of transformation from uniform type to agglomeration type. (3) Natural foundation, human factors, and economic development conditions are important factors affecting the spatial distribution characteristics and type structure differences of national scenic spots. The interaction of these factors affects the distribution status of scenic spots.
