本文运用分形理论论述了旅游景观构成要素的自相似性质,指出人类旅游行为本质上是为了摄取地理信息,而分形体是有效的信息之源,能使游人产生负熵的感受(即美感)。历史的混沌过程与地貌的分形构造形成了非富的旅游资源。借助分形学原理,依据有序与无序对立统一的原则设计旅游景观,必将使旅游资源得以合理地开发和充分地利用。

An exposition of the fractal charactor of tourist landscapes is given in the paper, which points out that human tourism is essentially an action to absorb geographical information. The differencity of geo-surface results in a great deal of information flow which as a kind of negative entropy can make tourists produce aesthetic feelings. Fractals with both similarity and differencity are good sources of information and a tourist landscape always includes various fractal bodies such as mounts, streams, cities, roads, etc. A suggestion is made that we can device the structure of a tourist landscape by means of fractal theory, which will make our tourist resources used much efficiently.
