Abstract: Since the Bagongshan National Geopark opened in 2001, its tourism value has been increasing year after year, but the monetary evaluation of its tourism use value has not been done. A ZTCM-based assessment on the tourism use value of Bagongshan National Geopark shows that the tourists’ scenic consumption expenditure is about 198 million yuan while the total tourist consumer surplus is about 2,706 million yuan, so its tourism use value adds up to 2,904 million yuan. It can be observed that tourism use value of Bagongshan National Geological Park is much higher than what has been achieved, so there is still much room for growth.

Key words: Bagongshan National Geopark, ZTCM, tourism use value
