摘要 Catering in scenic areas  is an important part of tourist experiences, yet the existing research on catering resources mainly focuses on tourist satisfaction and resource development, with limited analysis on the impact of catering resources distribution on tourists’ visiting willingness. Thus, based on case analysis, surveys and data analysis, this study selected Mount Tai Scenic Area as the research object to conduct an in-depth investigation on the impact of the distribution of catering resources on tourists’ visiting willingness, which identified many challenges faced by the distribution of catering resources in the scenic area and their underlying causes, finding that while there were rich varieties and concentrated catering options in high-traffic areas with strong tourists’ visiting willingness, significant gaps remained in locations with weak tourists’ visiting willingness. Furthermore, the overall catering offerings in Mount Tai Scenic Area demonstrated a notable deficiency in food products that authentically integrate with Mount Tai’s distinctive cultural heritage. To address such issues, improvement strategies were proposed for the development of catering resources in Mount Tai Scenic Area, including spatial development and integration, exploration of cultural connotations, and enhancement of tourism value, which provided insights for refining management of catering resources in forest park scenic spot, optimizing catering services, and enhancing the tourism experience of tourists.
