Edit this food tour and related concepts.
1. Gourmet tourism and tourism Gourmet tourism is a kind of tourism, and it is an enjoyment process with "gourmet" as the attraction. Tourist food is delicious food tasted during the trip, which can be a small, light and novel tourist snack carried on the way, or a delicious meal. Tourist food is an important part of food tourism. 2. Food tourism and food culture tourism Food culture tourism can be regarded as food tourism in a narrow sense. Food culture tourism focuses on "culture", which refers to the combination of food culture and tourism activities, with understanding food culture and tasting food as the main content, and is a high-level tourism activity. Because people's understanding and understanding of "beauty" are quite different, "food" presents colorful colors in content and form. Rich and strong food culture content is a necessary condition for the development of food tourism, which is the inevitable trend and result of the development of food culture tourism. 3. Gourmet tourism and tourism catering refer to the catering behavior in the process of tourism, while gourmet tourism refers to the tourism process with food as the attraction. These two concepts refer to different types of behaviors respectively, but both of them occur in the process of travel and are related to tourists' dining behavior. However, food tourism includes not only the catering process, but also other participatory activities related to food, such as cooking competitions, beer festivals and fruit festivals. Tourism catering pays more attention to tourists' catering behavior and quality, such as food safety, hygiene and nutrition.
Edit the characteristics of this gourmet tour.
1, China has a vast territory. Due to the differences in geographical environment, climate, products, politics and economy, national habits and religious beliefs, the dietary characteristics of various regions and ethnic groups are varied and colorful. The "eight major cuisines" are formed by the overall differences in regional environment. With their unique cooking skills and different styles of dishes, they have become an important scenic spot and an indispensable part of tourism resources. It is this difference in the regional distribution of tourism resources that forms the spatial flow of gourmet tourists, which is the fundamental reason why people achieve aesthetic and pleasant purposes in the form of tourism. 2. Originality Although food tourism is regional, food can be recreated in different places. However, gourmet tourism has left its origin. With the changes of natural environment and human environment, the "gourmet" enjoyed in the process of tourism is also different. This regional feature of tourism resources endows a country or region with a monopoly position on this kind of resources, which makes it impossible to compare simple imitation with ontology tourism resources. Moreover, in order to meet the market demand, local cuisine has to make some adaptive improvements when leaving the source, which greatly reduces the travel experience of gourmet tourists. This is particularly evident in Beijing. In Beijing, a place where people from all over the country gather, there are almost all restaurants with local flavor. Therefore, although there are many theme parks with ethnic customs, they lack the support of regional environment, surrounding environment and ethnic customs. In the eyes of tourists, true and false are clear. Therefore, the regionality of food tourism can highlight the originality of food tourism. 3. Nationality Because food tourists live in different cultural backgrounds, their travel needs are naturally influenced by cultural factors, which also affects the value judgment of food tourists on tourism resources. Tourists living in different areas have different understandings and pursuits of food. Gourmet tourism is a combination of culture and diet, because diet and culture are mutually integrated, infiltrated and inseparable. The food culture of different countries and nationalities is very different, so many scholars divide food tourism into folk customs and ethnic cultural tourism resources, which are often summarized as an important part of humanistic tourism resources. 4. The demands of contemporary food tourists are constantly changing in different times, so the evaluation of food varies with the times. In the early days of reform and opening-up, people's psychology of seeking novelty and difference was relatively heavy, which was a reflection of enjoying excitement and seeking taste differences. In 1990s, people began to pursue nutrition, nourishing and health care, and it became a popular trend to seek wild, foreign and nourishing. After SARS, the wind of seeking greenery and soil revived. The evaluation of food is different, and the mainstream food in different times is also different, so the theme of food tourism has also changed a lot. 5. Participatory food tourism is much more participatory than other types of tourism. First of all, the most important travel experience of gourmet tourism is tasting, which is both tangible and intangible. This kind of participation directly affects the length and quality of the whole tour, so the tourism experience is more important for gourmet tourists, which also puts forward higher requirements for gourmet tourism itself. Secondly, other participatory activities of gourmet tourism, such as watching cooking competitions, tea performances and learning to cook Chinese food, can arouse the strong imitation desire of gourmet tourists. These operational and rich tourism activities can easily prolong the duration of tourists' interest in food.

1, economic function On April 24th, Beijing Zhongguancun International Food Festival kicked off. As an annual industry event, Zhongguancun International Food Festival has been successfully held for six consecutive years, and has gradually become an important platform for promoting food culture and promoting industry innovation. It has not only become an annual catering industry event, but also played a positive role in standardizing enterprise management and guiding the healthy development of the industry. Food Festival activities can create market hotspots to attract people's consumption, highlight consumer interaction, create nuclear power to stimulate domestic demand, use kitchen waste to promote circular economy, and advocate corporate social responsibility. Gourmet tourism has promoted the development of food production, real estate, commerce, culture and entertainment, architecture and other industries, and brought huge space and development potential to economic development. In addition, due to the influence of gourmet tourism on other types of tourists, tourists pay more attention to the travel experience and consciously increase the consumption of food and beverage, which also makes the consumption of the whole tourism process rise. 2. Cultural Functions The cultural needs of gourmet tourists are the premise and foundation for the emergence, development and prosperity of gourmet tourism. Culture and food are embedded and complement each other. Gourmet tourism should meet the cultural needs of tourists, be market-oriented, explore cultural connotations, and inherit and carry forward traditional culture. Only in this way can food tourism have lasting vitality. Tourism activities are the unity of cultural diversity and cultural identity. Food tourism looks for different cultures everywhere, but they unconsciously smooth out the regional differences of food culture. Tourism culture plays a leading role in how to adapt to the market, maintain its characteristics and find a balance point. 3. As an important way to convey the cultural life of tourist destination to tourists, social functional food has become an indispensable part of the journey. Food is a universal lubricant, which is not limited to social functions, such as meeting friends and relatives, encouraging newspapers, and ensuring peace and good neighborliness, especially social functions, such as connecting feelings, negotiating business and daily communication. 4. Fitness Function It is the essence of China's food culture to achieve the purpose of nourishing and fitness through delicious food. It is the advantage of gourmet tourism to adjust the relationship between bodies and between physiology and psychology, so as to achieve the purpose of health and fitness. The organic combination of "dietotherapy and nourishing food" and tourism promotes the realization of gourmet tourism.
Edit the prospect of food tourism in this paragraph.
As gourmet tourism belongs to the form of development and enjoyment, its research will pay more attention to ecological and economic benefits.
