Tourism has a long history that in the Western culture dates back to ancient Rome and Greece. In imperial China, tourism has a tradition independent of Europe, and is defined in the present study as "the travel culture of landscape appreciation". At the heart of the travel culture was mainly landscape encountered, rather than society encountered as was in the European tradition. The aim of the study is to explore the factors contributing to the tradition formed in early medieval China (AD 220--589).

520 $a Tourism has a long history that in the Western culture dates back to ancient Rome and Greece. In imperial China, tourism has a tradition independent of Europe, and is defined in the present study as "the travel culture of landscape appreciation". At the heart of the travel culture was mainly landscape encountered, rather than society encountered as was in the European tradition. The aim of the study is to explore the factors contributing to the tradition formed in early medieval China (AD 220--589).
520 $a The major conclusions are as follows. The decline of Confucianism led to the transformation of value-orientation from devotion to hedonism. Accompanying the transformation was the quest for meaning of life, which resulted in the justification of landscape appreciation.
520 $a The permission from religion and philosophy paved the way for landscape appreciation. Confucianism took a moral perspective on mountains and rivers, which made the literati class close to nature in theory. By contrast, Taoism brought about practices of proximity to the nature world. Regarding mountains as immortals' dwellings and ideal sites for self-cultivation, Taoism drove the early Taoists and literati to mountains for nonmaterial reasons. Wandering in famous mountains with the excuse of gathering herb contributed to literati's awareness of the beauty of nature.
520 $a Literati in the third and fourth century tended to have a desire of wandering in famous yet remote mountains. However, the temporal and spatial constraints made them resort to the suburbs which were regarded as a substitute for famous mountains. The innovative idea brought scenery close to the literati class, and then more and more literati could engage in landscape appreciation. In the frequent suburban excursions, the literati class cultivated a strong and collective interest in landscape.
520 $a The long-distance travels offered important opportunities to encounter fresh sceneries which would be otherwise inaccessible. With these opportunities, the traveling literati sought for secluded and unusual sights, and explored the features and details of landscape, which brought about the aesthetic appreciation in the full sense. To a large extent, the four factors worked together and brought the travel culture of landscape appreciation to its flourish.
