Abstract


Taking Jiuzhaigou tourism website as an example and Eco-translatology as guidance theory, this paper analyzes the tourism text from language, cultural and communicative dimensions to obtain suggestions for tourism text translation.

Thus, the translation can be more acceptable to target readers so as to achieve commercial purpose of tourism text.
