    Abstract: The in-depth implementation of aid policy for Xinjiang promotes the efficiency of tourism aid in theregion and improves the high-quality development of its tourism economy. Based on the three-stage data envelopment analysis and Tobit model, this paper measured the factors influencing the efficiency of tourism aid in Xinjiang from 2015 to 2019 and regional differences. The results show that: (1) Environmental factors have a strong influence on tourism aid efficiency. Overall, there is a large margin for improvement in tourism aid efficiency,which is mainly affected by efficiencies of scale. The trend of efficiency value change is pure technical efficiency>scale efficiency>comprehensive efficiency, and a distribution pattern corresponding to high values in thenorth of the region and low values in the south is evident. (2) Regional dummy variables, investment level, percapita educational investment, and attraction of tourism resources significantly improved efficiency. (3) From theperspective of vertical and horizontal compatibility and internal and external suitability, the mechanism influencing the efficiency of tourism aid in Xinjiang is summarized as comprising three periods, three dimensions, andseven aspects, and the changes and evolutionary course of tourism aid in Xinjiang are identified. The results havetheoretical value and a meaningful reference for the macro-adjustment of aid policy in Xinjiang and the optimalallocation of aid resources in the future.

    Abstract: This study empirically explores the effect of intercity trains on the high-quality development of tourism economy in Xinjiang, China using a multi-period difference-in-difference model and based on the municipal panel data from 2010 to 2019. It also measures the evaluation index of the high-quality development of the tourism economy through the entropy value assignment method. The conclusions of this paper are as follows: (1) The study revealed an uneven high-quality tourism economic development in Xinjiang, and its evolution pattern is “monocentric radiation→bicentric radiation”. (2) The presence of intercity trains effectively improves the highquality development of tourism economy in northern Xinjiang with negative adjustment effect and has no significant indigenous influence on southern Xinjiang with positive adjustment effect. (3) Intercity trains have significant influence on medium-level cities with high-quality development of tourism economy but have no significant influence on high-level cities and low-level cities. (4) The significant positive effect of the intercity trains on impact mechanism of development dimension is innovative development>shared development>green development> open development, and the impact on the coordinated development is not significant. This study enriches the classic cases of the integrated development of“railway+tourism”and helps explore the path mode of high-quality integrated development of intercity train and tourism economy.
