With the vigorous development of rural tourism, the development of rural areas has a new impetus under the blessing of the tourism industry. With the continuous research on rural tourism and rural development, the research on tourism promoting rural development has also deepened. The current research status, deficiencies and future research trends are analyzed. Through the literature analysis of CiteSpace software, it is concluded that: in terms of research subjects, the distribution of researchers in tourism promoting rural development research is relatively scattered, and no close and large-scale research team has formed; the number of intensive cooperation relationships formed between research institutions is not large in research content, Chinese research is more dominated by policy, and the concept of ecological and cultural protection is strong; the research sequence first focuses on the development of rural tourism in a macro, holistic, and comprehensive manner. In the future, attention should be paid to the following. From the perspective of research subjects, a close and large-scale cooperative relationship has not yet been formed, and it is necessary to promote the cooperative relationship between research subjects. From the perspective of participating subjects, the balance of interests between stakeholders in rural development is still an issue to be solved. It is necessary to further explore the role of stakeholders in rural tourism and impact of rural tourism on participating individuals. From the perspective of theoretical research, it is necessary to deepen the basic theoretical research on the promotion of rural development by tourism, clarify the deep relationship between rural tourism and rural development under the background of the rural revitalization strategy, and study the new realization path of tourism promoting rural development.
