Seeking transcendence in the depths of the soul
Recent research on spiritual tourism has largely emphasised physical and psychological well-being, often overlooking an ontological dimension of spirituality and its potential to address fundamental human pursuit. This study advances the understanding of spiritual tourism by examining transcendental experiences among Chinese spiritual tourists in nature. Using semi-structured, in-depth interviews, we gathered rich narratives that were thematicall…
Tourism and extraordinary ordinary life
This study examines how nature-based tourism and everyday life intertwine to shape meaning and personal transformation. Drawing on constructivist grounded theory and evidence from observations in four protected areas alongside thirty-eight interviews with Chinese tourists, it identifies a four-stage process of becoming: departing, encountering, returning, and transforming. Informed by Deleuzian philosophy, tourism is reimagined as an immanent and…

Findings enable the construction of a hierarchical framework of spiritual tourism achievement…

Based on the ecological systems theory, the present …
