- Abstract
This study investigates the principal components of the competitiveness of tourism destinations and their intrinsic classification by applying principal component analysis and cluster analysis with Macau tourism destination as the research object. First, a large amount of data on Macau tourism was collected, and the main factors affecting the competitiveness of tourism destinations were identified as "infrastructure and service quality" and "diversity and innovation of tourism products" through principal component analysis. Cluster analysis was then used to classify Macau's tourism destinations into two main categories, one featuring high-quality infrastructure and services, and the other featuring a rich and diverse tourism product. The results have important theoretical and practical implications for enhancing the competitiveness of Macau and other tourism destinations. Future research could further consider temporal factors as well as try to apply the research framework to other tourism destinations.
