【Abstract】 The research on tourism geology in the West can be traced back to 1930s,while it started in China in the late 1970s. Therefore, reviewing the whole development of the research on tourism geology in the past is very helpful to domestic tourism geology research. Based on the review on the whole development course of tourism geology ,the paper elaborates the research methods, research contents and current research trends in the tourism geology. The tourism geology, as a subject, has been elementarily established, so it is far from the mature phases. But this is the thing to inspire researchers to study further.更多还原
