To improve the quality of rural tourism, we must pay attention to the "suitable aging" service

Promoting the "aging" transformation of rural tourist attractions is not only an important part of promoting the physical and mental health of the elderly and satisfying the healthy life of the elderly, but also the needs of the development of the health care industry.

Affected by the epidemic, many people planned to travel to the province during the Mid -Autumn Festival and National Day holidays turned to suburbs and rural tourism. Recently, several elderly friends in the same community praised "eating well and playing well" after playing several nearby rural tourism spots nearby. At the same time, the most voiced is "inconvenient." It turned out that although the public toilets of the attractions were clean and hygienic, they were all squats, and there were no handrails installed on the partition, which was inconvenient to the elderly when they were in the toilet.

The experience of several elderly people undoubtedly proposed a new topic for improving the level of rural tourism. Needless to say, the countryside is favored by many elderly tourists with its unique natural environment, idyllic scenery, folk customs, and farming culture. However, when designing and building tourism facilities and organizational tourism activities, some rural attractions mostly consider how to increase customer sources and improve economic benefits. In comparison, less considers and insufficient preparations for how to receive and serve elderly tourists.

my country has entered an aging society, and many places have entered a moderate aging from mild aging, and the task of building a "elderly friendly society" is very urgent. From the perspective of tourism development, the "silver -haired family" is a source of tourist customers that cannot be ignored, which is particularly obvious in rural tourism.

To this end, localities should change their concepts, make up for rural tourist attractions facilities and service shortcomings, and accelerate the transformation of existing facilities to "appropriate aging" to make the attractions more "aging" facilities. Essence For example, in the construction of attractions infrastructure, in addition to mentioning the design of public toilet design, it is also necessary to consider the characteristics of the prone to fatigue of the elderly, set up more rest facilities, and more rest areas. The characteristics of the road should be as flat as possible when the road is built, and the slope should be as smooth as possible. In the setting of attractions, you can set out a tourist point specifically for the elderly. For the elderly, the elderly love to ask, quiet, and pay more attention to historical and cultural connotation. It is designed to find experience activities such as nostalgia, resting, leisure, and health. In terms of services, special attention should be paid to the characteristics of not being proficient in using smart devices for the elderly to retain some manual services; for the characteristics of weakening the vision of the elderly, the text of various types of information should be used as much as possible ...

Promoting the "aging" transformation of rural tourist attractions is not only an important part of promoting the physical and mental health of the elderly and satisfying the healthy life of the elderly, but also the need for the development of the health care industry. It is also a requirement for promoting the development of rural tourism and improving the quality of rural tourism.

Rural tourist spots should expand ideas and increase the content of "aging" according to the needs of the elderly. Local governments and related aspects should also take effective measures, introduce preferential policies, increase investment, strengthen guidance, and support the transformation of rural tourist attractions in various aspects, promote the development of the "elderly friendly" rural tourism market, promote rural tourism, and suburbs of the suburbs. Traveling healthy development. (Author: Zhou Rongguang; Editor: Song Yuqiu)
