Abstract
In this research, aiming to get the suggestion about fruitful tourism revival, semi-structured interview survey was conducted. Focusing on the collaboration between tourism-related administrations, tourist association, tourism-related organizations and others, this research examines tourism-based community development of Beppu city which was formerly flourished as a big hot spring destination. As the result, it is revealed that the effectiveness of connection between mass tourism and new tourism is starting to be recognized by some organizations, though the local government does not adopt positive policies heading towards the collaboration. Preparing the place of exchange information between organizations under tourism-based community development as a policy seems important.
