The design of scenic routes is no longer the most direct and fastest route from the place of origin to the destination but adhering to the design concept of “experience the joy of driving” so as to provide self drive travelers the best enjoyment of beautiful scenery along the route. Scenic routes are able to connect spots and facets of the travel landscape. These would help retain the historical value and cultural value of the eco-tourism resources along the route. Meanwhile, various thematic activities may also be held to enhance tourist participation and recreation experience, creating economic benefit for the local tourism industry.
风景道设计不再是出发地到目的地之间最直接快捷的路径，而是遵从“体验驾车乐趣”的设计理念，为自驾游客提供欣赏沿路美景的最佳享受；风景道能够将点状、面状旅游景观相联结，既保留了沿线生态旅游资源的历史价值和文化价值，也能举办各类主题性活动增强游客的参与性与游憩体验，为当地旅游业创造经济效益。
