What Makes a Tourism Destination Wenqing? A Perspective of Tourists

In Chinese society, wenqing has transformed from the identity of a particular social group into consumerist symbols and styles, which has appeared in various tourism consumption fields. This study adopts the notion of experiencescape to tourism destinations as the specific field of experience production and consumption. By applying the grounded theory to analyze online reviews and semi-structured interviews, this study interprets the experiencescape of wenqing tourism destinations as three core categories of environment base, ambiance, and wenqing immersion, and eight categories of accessibility, natural resources, cultural resources, perceived space and environment, customers' image, technical medium, social interaction, and experience behavior. Furthermore, this study performs an exploratory interpretation of tourists' experience path to wenqing experiencescape and the full continuum of three experience stages. The findings reveal the symbolic meaning of wenqing in tourism destinations, advance the exploration and research of experiencescape and wenqing, and provide implications for tourism industry to specifically create a wenqing experience environment in tourism destinations.
