“…This study provides new insights into rural tourism development. Currently, research on rural tourism landscapes mostly focuses on individual village planning and lacks synergy between local and regional development [41,42]. Integration planning is more beneficial for exploring rural characteristics, coordinating and organizing at the macro level, maximizing overall benefits through complementarity and coordinated development, enhancing regional influence, and driving overall economic development [43].…”

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has led to a surge in rural tourism, catering to consumers during the pandemic. However, rural tourism faces severe issues of homogeneity and environmental degradation owing to excessive development. Sustainable development of rural tourism is an urgent problem. This study, based on the average variable cost (AVC) theory, aims to explore the sustainable development of rural tourism landscapes with a focus on the Shijing area. A landscape evaluation system was established through factor analysis and weight calculations, with ten principal components contributing to a cumulative contribution rate of 77.196%. The weighted values for attractiveness, vitality, and resilience were 0.539, 0.297, and 0.164, respectively. The findings indicate that Caijiapo Village had the highest comprehensive score of 88.79 (good level of performance), whereas Laoyukou Village had the lowest comprehensive score of 80.25 (average level of performance). Caijiapo and Liyukou exhibited the strongest overall strength, whereas Liyuanpo and Xiazhuang had moderate overall strength, and Laoyukou had the weakest overall strength. The results reveal that all five villages possess rich natural landscapes and favorable geographical conditions, demonstrating the potential and attractiveness of rural tourism development. However, the overall carrying capacity was moderate and vitality was relatively weak. This supports the AVC theory application in rural tourism research and emphasizes the importance of rural landscape quality and economic vitality. The main contributions of this study are as follows: (1) the establishment of a rural tourism landscape evaluation system based on the AVC theory, providing a scientific assessment method for sustainable development; (2) the case evaluation in the Shiying area provides decision-makers with reference for development strategies; (3) emphasis on the importance of ecological conservation in rural tourism and providing recommendations to address issues of homogenization and environmental degradation.

“…In contrast, the analysis of the formation and laws of color landscapes in tourist cities is slightly insufficient. Many studies show that with the development of large-scale tourism, color landscape planning can better activate the tourism market by applying modern color principles to the construction of city image [ [42] , [43] , [44] ]. On the other hand, city color construction can fully excavate and reuse the elements of urban tourism resources, make up for the apathy brought to modern cities by artificial depiction, and form a new harmony among people, nature and society [ 45 ].…”

“…In the rural tourism industry, landscape resources provide both assets for, and constraints on, tourism development. The intertwined relationship between rural tourism and landscape comes with a series of costs and benefits [17]. Therefore, the rational utilization of rural tourism landscape resources is conducive to guiding the construction of the countryside and the development of rural tourism.…”

Rural tourism landscape resources are important ingredients of rural revitalization and modernization in developing countries and regions. Evaluation methods play a crucial role in the planning, design, transformation, development, and protection of these resources. However, there has been a lack of research on the evaluation of rural tourism landscape resources, especially from the perspective of rural revitalization and carbon neutrality. From the perspective of carbon neutrality and rural revitalization, this article establishes an indicator system to evaluate rural tourism landscape resources based on previous evaluation methods and expert consultations on landscape planning. An evaluation model based on the intuitionistic fuzzy VIKOR method structure matching is also suggested. Some practical suggestions are put forward to promote the values of rural tourism landscape resources through empirical analyses of three regions in Changsha, Hunan, China. Our study shows that the evaluation results could objectively reflect the values and existing problems of rural tourism landscape resources, which could provide practical tools for local government departments to make decisions, and landscape architects to plan and design. Based on this model, further suggestions are provided to improve rural tourism landscape resources.
