Abstract

In order to survey whether a city has the potentials and conditions to develop leisure economy at present, we need to set up a workable evaluation index system and evaluation method to measure the leisure degree and leisure development capacity of a city. This article first analyzed different viewpoints on the Leisure City evaluation index system and summarized the concept and meaning of Leisure City, and then discussed the index system and quantitative method to evaluate Leisure City. With the help of SPSS software, this study took 15 cities in China including Hangzhou, Chengdu, Dalian, Qingdao and Nanjing as examples and analyzed their leisure level and strength. The result showed that Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Chengdu and Beijing had higher leisure consciousness and richer and better leisure facilities, while Xiamen, Shanghai, Dalian and Hangzhou had more appropriate leisure environment. As far as integrated leisure strength was concerned, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou and Hangzhou had higher leisure comprehensive development degree. Finally, we discussed the issue on how China would build top Leisure City, and put forward some future research proposals on this issue.
