The empirical findings reveal: (1) The ecological and cultural attributes of the Linpan landscape demonstrate notable psychological resource restoration efficacy; (2) Place identity functions as the “emotional nexus” shaping tourists’ behavioral intentions; (3) Mediation effect analysis identifies a “functional-affective transformation threshold” in the transmission of restorative effects.
