Abstract：The development of tourism for the senior is one of the phenomena of the aging of the global population structure, and has become an important field of interdisciplinary research such as tourism and gerontology. A relatively perfect research system has been formed in foreign countries, and the domestic attention to the senior tourism is also increasing, but it is still in the initial stage of phenomenon description. Based on the background of human geography, this paper collects, sorts out and carefully analyzes the main literature of foreign senior tourism research. This paper systematically summarizes the progress, clues, representative academic theories and multi-disciplinary theories and methods involved in the research of foreign senior tourism. The current foreign senior tourism research is mainly divided into two directions:market management research and active aging research. Among them, the market management direction is more research on tourism behavior and psychology from the perspective of senior tourists, and explores the relationship with the destination, The aging direction pays more attention to the aging value and positive significance of travel-related behaviors of the elderly. From the perspective of humanistic geography, the paper analyzes the shortcomings of foreign research on senior tourism, and makes a judgment on the applicability of humanistic geography to the study of senior tourism, and puts forward a new research framework. On the one hand, it is committed to solving practical research problems, on the other hand, it is seeking the deep intervention of human geography in the research of senior tourism, which has both theoretical significance and application value.
