Abstract: Tourism, as one of the most dynamic economic activities of recent years, plays
a significant role in the economic development of human societies. One of the most
essential bases of tourism development is the existence of natural and cultural-historical
attractions, an efficient system of facilities services, and tourism facilities. Therefore, the
current study has levelled tourism routes of Isfahan province in terms of having
attractions and facilities to provide a better serving system for tourists according to the
capacity of each tourism axis and its appropriate management to meet their needs. This
study uses the descriptive-analytical method. The entropy weight method, cluster analysis
(Ward method), and SWOT analysis were utilised. The study results indicated that the
Isfahan-Semirom, Isfahan-Kashan, and Isfahan-Fereydunshahr tourism routes were the
best in terms of tourism attractions and facilities. In fact, Isfahan province’s central, westnorth,
and west tourist routes have more tourist attractions, and the need for facilities and
services is felt in these routes. The final result of the SWOT analysis shows that it has more
tourism strengths and opportunities than weaknesses and threats. Therefore, more
services and facilities should be provided to develop tourism on this route. These findings
suggest that the increase in services and facilities should occur more in the western and
southern routes of the province.
