Based on the theory of the ecological footprint, the paper analyzes the concept, measurement basis and calculation method of urban tourist ecological footprint (UTEF). From the perspective of tourist consumption structure, the model of UTEF is divided into six sub-models including tourist transportation, tourist catering, tourist accommodation, tourist shopping, tourist sightseeing and tourist entertainment. By integrating synthetic method and component method, this paper calculates the aspects of UTEF mentioned above per capital at 1996, 2001 and 2006 year respectively. The results are 0.053550、0.039537hm² and 0.042167hm² respectively in Fuzhou. The dynamic study on Fuzhou city indicates the following conclusions: (1) The tourist quantity might not be directly related with the equilibria UTEF per capital. (2) The key factor affecting UTEF includes the quantity and methods of tourism flow, the consumption level and structure of tourist, the spatial behavior of tourist and the development level of scenic spot etc. (3) In fact the energy consumption is larger than building consumption at the tourist accommodation. But the rule is going to be weakening along with the development of china tourism and the change of tourist demand, especially with the increasing demand of high star hotel. (4) Tourist transportation has always been the largest part of UTEF and tends to be increasing. It is the most effective approach to decrease tourist ecological footprint and achieve the urban sustainable tourism development by encouraging reasonable arranging and selection transportation facility; (5)The tourist per capita equilibrium ecological footprint is 10.59 times than local’s in Fuzhou in 2006, it is 26.41times than local ecological carrying capacity, urban tourist activities is a life style which highly demands and consumes natural resource.
