According to the places that the tourists choosing to visit in Wuhan and the three indexes of the social network theory:degree centrality, closeness centrality and intermediate center, the research has studied the tourism spatial structure of Wuhan consisting of the tourism nodes and empirical analysis of the tourism spatial system structure. The characteristics of the tourism spatial system structure of Wuhan and the factors affecting it are analyzed at the end of the passage.
