Question

What do you consider to be the relevance of the "Importance of the Capital City Index" in tourism studies?

If the index (in above) for Quasi City, which is the capital for Kingsland Island, is 0.8, what is your interpretation of this index for the island?

Answer 1

Capital cities of different nations around the world are considered to have higher number of significant cultural, business, and educational centres, thereby providing higher utility or relevance to the tourists leading to a significantly higher number of arrival of tourists in the capital city.

If the index for Quasi City, which is the capital for Kingsland Island, is 0.8, I believe it means 80% of total arriving tourists would have higher relevance for visiting the capital, Quasi city in the country, Kingsland Island.
