Introduction:
Tourists' restorative perception of the environment in rural tourism is a key factor to enhance tourism experience and promote physical and mental recovery, as well as a new perspective of tourist psychological research. However, the current research on the impact of tourists' perceived destination restorative qualities on loyalty in rural tourism has not been deeply discussed.
Methods:
Based on the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) framework, this study explores the relationship between tourists' perceived destination restorative qualities, well-being (hedonic experience and eudaimonic experience), destination image and loyalty. Through a questionnaire survey, 489 valid questionnaires were obtained and analyzed by structural equation model.
Results:
The results show that: (1) Perceived destination restorative qualities have a direct positive impact on hedonic experience, eudaimonic experience and destination image; (2) Both hedonic experience and eudaimonic experience have a direct positive impact on destination image and loyalty, in which the impact of hedonic experience is greater; (3) The relationship between destination image and loyalty is not significant.
Discussion:
The research results provide important guiding significance and enlightenment for the development of rural tourism.
