In the world of contemporary architecture and urban planning, the interaction of architecture with culture, identity, and history of a region is an important subject of study. Kish Island, as one of the prominent tourist destinations in the Persian Gulf and the Middle East, possesses a remarkable and diverse culture that has gained attention in recent decades. Through the interplay of economic growth, environmental conservation, and nature preservation, the island can highlight the issues of culture and identity in the Persian Gulf region. This research focuses on examining the cultural and identity components in indigenous architecture on Kish Island and the relationship between indigenous architecture, culture, and the natural environment.

The research methodology is descriptive-analytical, where the descriptive part is based on library studies, and the analytical part is conducted field-wise on Kish Island, relying on the outputs of theoretical foundations.

The research findings indicate that the indigenous architecture of Kish Island is significantly influenced by the climatic, social, and cultural conditions of the region. The use of local materials, specific designs for natural ventilation, and the incorporation of traditional forms are among the prominent features of Kish's indigenous architecture. Additionally, cultural elements such as decorative motifs, natural colors, and traditional patterns can be observed in the buildings.

Recognizing and preserving the cultural and identity components in Kish's indigenous architecture can contribute to sustainable development and the preservation of the region's cultural identity. Incorporating these components into contemporary designs not only enhances the beauty and functionality of the buildings but also strengthens the sense of belonging and indigenous identity among the residents. This research can serve as a model for other regions with distinctive indigenous architecture

Given natural, historical, and cultural attractions, cities are considered important tourist destinations. Urban tourism development brings positive and negative economic, social, cultural, and environmental impacts. This issue becomes particularly significant concerning sustainable development. Currently, the development of sustainable tourism plays such a role in the economic, social, and cultural development of the countries that economists consider it the engine of the country's development. The development of tourism in the world requires the efficiency of the management system, the strengthening of the infrastructure, and the improvement of the necessary capacities. One of the most important factors in the development of tourism in any region is how it is managed. This research aimed to investigate the future of spatial-strategic urban tourism development of Kish Island with a sustainable development approach and to compare the scenario writing method, SWOT analysis, and SOAR strategic model. The research method was exploratory and descriptive-analytical, which was conducted using library and field studies resulting from interviews and questionnaires (in two stages using the Delphi method). The sample included 54 officials and experts of tourism, urban planning and development and civil engineering of Kish Free Zone Organization, professors and experts of other disciplines related to the urban and tourism field, and 100 tourists and residents. SPSS software, one-sample T-test and ANOVA were used to analyze data. To determine the drivers of development and key factors, first 45 of the indicators that showed more than 60% uncertainty were selected, and then 30 were identified as influential factors by forming a panel of experts. For data analysis, interaction effects analysis method was used in MicMac software. The results indicated the instability of variables within the system. After identifying the influencing, dual, independent, and dependent factors, three scenarios for the sustainable development of Kish Island were developed based on the dependent factors, which included efficient tourism management, public participation, job creation, and income generation. The scenarios were compared with the strategies derived from the SWOT analysis and the SOAR strategic model. Finally, the point density method in GIS software was used to analyze the tourism space of Kish Island.

This Research has been conducted with the aim of providing the Halal tourism model presentation in 2019 in Kish Island. The samples of this Research included 10 persons. After interview and coding, totally, 227 frequencies were obtained from 10 interview files. After the study, very short meaningful keywords were assigned to a part of the text. After classifying the subcomponents, the category of strengths included 8 subcomponents of varied foods and high quality and diversity of the product with the greatest frequency and appropriate climate with the least frequency.

The Threats was observed with 7 subcomponents of expensiveness and price of flights with the greatest frequency and weak and inefficient management and overtaking of foreign competitors with the least frequency. Totally, 254 frequencies were obtained for categories. Finally the tree model was presented.

Kish Island, with its special geographical characteristics, is the only tourist area among all Iranian islands that has received particular attention in all eras. Women should be considered for the tourism industry development due to specific gender restrictions. The current research aims to "identify the factors influencing the development of sports tourism in Kish Island with an emphasis on women's recreational sports.” The research was a mixed study conducted using qualitative and quantitative studies. To identify the factors affecting the development of sports tourism, semi-structured interviews were conducted with experts, experts in the field of sport and tourism in Kish, and university professors. The result of this phase was identifying the influential factor, which became a structured questionnaire. Before distributing the questionnaire, its validity, and reliability were first determined. Then the questionnaires were completed by 80 experts working in tourism, sports, and women participating in sports-recreational games in Kish Island. In total, five factors (individual, contextual, organizational, partnership, and service management), 13 dimensions (demographic, psychological and behavioral, structural, infrastructural, policy and planning, organization, distribution and supply of services, needs assessment, sports events and coverage, sports attractions, human resources, financial resources, technology, and knowledge) and 46 components were identified. The analysis of the structural model showed that all identified factors have an impact on the development of sports tourism in Kish Island. Managerial factors were the most important, and individual factors were the least important.

One of the important tourism centers of the Islamic Republic of Iran is Kish Island, which is also very popular among Iranian tourists. Increasing the capabilities of Kish Island will increase the tourism capabilities of Iran. In recent years, several problems and factors have reduced the desire to travel to Kish Island. The purpose of this study is to design a native model of the intention of tourists to return to Kish Island with a Reasoned Action theory approach to increase the desire to return to the island. Therefore, this research is applied-developmental and exploratory in nature and the data has been collected by mixed-exploratory (qualitative-quantitative) method. In the qualitative part of the study, 10 experts were examined as a sample by a judgmental method for in-depth review through semi-structured interviews. Using content analysis technique, 117 primary codes, 26 sub-categories and 7 main categories in the obtained qualitative model were identified. The statistical population consists of a small number of incoming tourists to the island in the field of data collection, in which the sample size is estimated by available sampling method using Cochran's formula of 320 people. Due to the fact that the measurement model studied in this research is reflective. Based on the quantitative model obtained from smartPLS software, it was found that the variables of rules and regulations, infrastructure, perceived quality, natural, cultural and historical environment, prevailing atmosphere, perceived value and marketing affect the intention to travel again. Meanwhile, using the path analysis of the obtained structural model, the infrastructure has the greatest effect on the intention of tourists to return to Kish Island and the prevailing atmosphere is the second rank and perceived quality is the third variable affecting the re-selection of the island as a destination by tourists.

Nowadays, branding is a popular and powerful tool which cause distinction amid similar places in the competitive tourism market. Among the places, Islands create unique experiences for tourists due to their mainland. Kish Island needs branding to compete with other tourist islands of Southwest Asia to use its special potential to become the top tourist destination.This research aim to proposing a model of branding based on brand attachment for Kish Island.Since very few studies have been done on the branding of tourist islands, grounded theory (Systematic GTM)with the approach of Strauss and Corbin used for theorizing and identifying dimensions of the model.Theoretical sampling was used through deep semi-structured interview of experts in the field of tourism, marketing and brand. After extracting the initial concepts, open, axial and selective coding of the concepts were performed by Maxqda 18 software.The outcome of the research model indicated that the process of branding was affected by the casual condition which named as strategic brand management. Thus, place-oriented marketing, economic and place brand action strategies lead to desirable result such as place attachment, place value, cultural-economical development of Kish Island. The process was strengthened by contextual conditions such as environmental-legal factors and cultural- social factors as well as encountering with branding challenges.

In this research, the brand personality marketing model has been presented in order to increase customer loyalty in tourism destinations. The research method is applied and in terms of approach, he is exploratory-explanatory and the research method is mixed (qualitative-quantitative). The statistical population in the qualitative part includes experts and experts in urban management and tourism and in the quantitative part includes domestic tourists entering Kish Island in the summer of 1399; From the first group, 13 samples were selected by targeted snowball method and from the second group, 85 samples were selected by simple random method. In this research, for data analysis in the qualitative part, Grounded theory was used and in the quantitative part, structural equation modeling was used. Findings based on the data theory of the foundation in the qualitative section showed that marketing factors through 5 elements of service / product, price, advertising, promotion and location and management factors through 3 components of effective leadership, human resource management and tourism policies create brand personality in Kish Island; And the personality of the created brand also creates urban branding. Also, infrastructure such as accommodation-health services, transportation and food (restaurants) as background conditions and environmental capabilities such as political and security, economic and socio-cultural factors as interfering factors affect urban branding in Kish Island and finally It causes loyalty to the brand, which will be beneficial for both tourists and Kish Island. Quantitative findings also confirm the findings of the qualitative section; As the results of structural equation modeling showed, at 95% confidence level of marketing and management on brand personality; Brand personality, environmental factors and infrastructure on urban branding; And urban branding affects brand loyalty.

The purpose of this study is to identify the effective indicators of good urban governance, livability, banking and competitiveness in urban development strategy and increase the resilience of Kish Island with empowerment approach, based on which one of the economic infrastructure, social, managerial, physical needs to increase resilience and achieve empowerment of managers and citizens in the face of economic, social and environmental crises.

The research method is based on descriptive-analytical methods and is applied in terms of the purpose. The results obtained from the questionnaires were calculated using SPSS software and Chi-square test and T-sample. In order to evaluate and compare the resilience of urban development strategy indicators in the dimensions of good urban governance, banking, viability and competitiveness, ANOVA test and structural equation modeling were performed with PLS and Micmac software and SOAR strategic model for development strategy and describes the strengths, opportunities, ideals, and outcomes used in empowerment.

The results show that the indicators of Kish Island urban development strategy in terms of viability are in a better position than other indicators and the indicators of good urban governance, banking and competitiveness are not in a favorable position.

Therefore, it can be said that the respondents believe that all indicators of Kish Island urban development strategy are not at the desired level, in other words, Kish is still livable, but not in a good managerial and economic situation.

Cities and towns are not equally threatened by different dangers that potentially threatens them. This is because of different social, physical, environmental and cultural sizes of the cities. Therefore, each city or town follows a different approach. This requires thorough research studies on investigating the criteria and related indexes and their impacts of urban structure and resilience. This study has a practical nature and uses descriptive- analytical method to identify the effective resilience factors and physical indexes of urban neighborhoods, and also to evaluating and assess the physical resilience of Kish Island’s neighborhoods. The researcher attempts to present a framework for evaluating the rate of physical resilience. Then the data was collected by field methodology and questionnaire. In the next step, the conditions of neighborhoods in terms of resilience were provided by Friedman method and the resilience condition of the neighborhoods were calculated based on the effective parameters. The results showed that Nobonyad and Arabha Neighborhoods are respectively the best and the worst neighborhoods in terms of resilience. The second, third and the fourth rank of high resilience are line of the beach and respectively belongs to Eest and Sadaf neighbuor hoods. Due to the executive capability of the findings of this research study it is possible to provide a framework for evaluating and assessing the resilience of other urban neighborhoods.

Kish Island is one of the important and strategic islands of the Persian Gulf. A study of the historical background of this island indicates that its geographical conditions, natural features, and linkingstatus played some roles in increasing its population and turning it into an important harbor and dockyard. Because of being located on the commercial route of northern ports, Kish Island was always the focus of attention of local and regional rulers. Following Siraf’s losing its lure and luster, Kish Island managed to obtain a noteworthy place among other coastal territories of the Indian Ocean. However, the roles of Bani Qaysar rulers, Atabaks of Fars, and Tayyebi family cannot be ignored in promoting the commercial prosperity of this island. The present paper explores the economic status of Kish Island during the interval between the decline of Siraf and prosperity of Hormuz Island (5th-8thcenturies AH).

The importance of commercial centers as a major driver of tourism has been widely acknowledged in theoretical studies of tourism marketing. This study combines quantitative and qualitative approaches to determine the effective measures on the attractiveness of commercial centers as one of the effective dimensions on the attractiveness of tourism areas and the research data have been collected and analyzed in two main phases. The first phase by conducting qualitative exploratory research through semi-structured interviews with active managers in the urban planning and tourism area of Kish Island and analyzing the content of the responses presented confirmed that the attractiveness of commercial marketing could be considered as one of the criteria determining the attractiveness of the tourist areas. In the second phase of the study, in two separate studies, with the participation of tourists from Kish Island, with the aim of identifying the criteria affecting the attractiveness of commercial shopping centers in terms of buyers based on confirmatory and exploratory factor analysis methods as well as structural equation modeling (SEM), a five-dimensional model tangible factors, store space, product, sellers, and convenience shopping is designed

The connecting role of Iran in previous periods has always attracted the attention of different nations and ethnic groups. In fact, as a crossroad connecting different countries to each other, Iran was always witness to the conflicts among different ethnic groups. During the past periods, Iran and China had some commercial relationships with each other and, in addition to trading through land routes, they also exchanged their goods through the sea route of the Persian Gulf and its islands, such as Kish and Hormuz, and Siraf Port. The ports of the Persian Gulf have played a great role in Iran’s economic prosperity since long ago, and many different sources testify to the truth of this claim. The present paper examines the mentioned role with an emphasis on the economic and commercial status of the Persian Gulf in the Ilkhanid Period.

Renewable energy and especially solar energy in Kish Island, have special important in order to maintain biological life and prevent air and water pollution The use of solar energy in Kish Island as a touristy region have effective role in biological environment and increasing of its attractive. Hence the aim of this paper is determine of solar energy potential in order to use pure energy in this Island. Be-cease of absent of radiometer in Kish Island, we use the daily data of radiometer and climatic parameter as radiation coefficient and coldness in Bandarabbas station for determine the estimation model. Then by use of this model and climatic parameter in Kish Island, we estimate radiation in this Island. The result show that the model based on brightness coefficient and sky coldness has a correct estimation of received radiation in horizontal surface in kish Island. In addition, various methods for determining the optimum angle of the solar panels were studied and finally Skeiker model was used to determine the optimum angle of solar panels. Duffy and Beckman model to compare the amount of radiation received at the surface of solar panels and radiation angles in the horizontal plane was used. The average radiation Kish Island is 508.7 calories per square centimeter per day, including areas with high potential for the utilization of solar energy in photovoltaic systems as well as solar water heating and cooling. The results showed that the average monthly proper slope solar panels for June least 4 degrees and 50 degrees for January and December along the horizon. By applying the proper angle of the panels, the amount of radiation increased respectively 48 and 55 percent in January and December.

Kish Island is an Iranian island in Persian Gulf which has had a significant potential in economic and tourism activities during recent decades. Kish is an ancient name, and the town of Kish had been a great capital among ancient centers in the Persian Gulf and Mesopotamia area. Kish has also an especial strategic and ecologic position due to having water sources in the area, and has experienced many historical changes because of its water resources. This island has been under attention by all local and European colonial powers during recent centuries. In middle ages, a local government of Kish called Muluk-i Kish made the island as a substitution of Bandar Siraf, and changed the island as a trade center in the region. After the end of Muluk-i Kish, the island went under domination of Muluk-i Hurmuz, and then, Kish was a part of different governments territories prior the rise of Safavids. By the time of Safavids and the presence of European colonial powers in the Persian Gulf, Kish Island faced with new historical transformations and placed into Portuguese, English and Dutch interests. These political, economic, and social transformations continued in later periods until Qajar and Pahlavi eras, and at the present, the island has become a fundamental economic and tourism center in the Persian Gulf region. At the present paper, the process of political, economic, and social changes of Kish Island in a historical perspective are investigated in details.

Tourism industry is considered as one of the biggest and most diverse service-providing industries in the world. Given the economic importance of the tourism industry, identification of barriers to attract tourists and to gain market share become worthy of notice. Here, then, the social distance perceived by tourists to with local residents as a barrier to attract tourists is considered as the subject of this article to be investigated. . Due to the existence of cultural differences, tourists’ perceptions or attitudes toward different social matters are different from those of natives, and this may lead to social distance. Therefore, the main goal of this study was to analyze the effects of perceived social distance on behavioral intentions of international tourists who had visited Kish Island, at the southern part of Iran- with a focus on the perceived risk and tourists’ satisfaction. Social distance explains the cooperative behaviour and sympathetic understanding that exists between people (Sinkovics & Penz, 2009).Social distance is defined in terms of the affective distance between group members. ‘‘Where there is little sympathetic understanding, social farness exists. Where sympathetic understanding is great, nearness exists’’(Matear,2014).Thus, positive views of residents regarding tourists and well-functioning relationships between tourists and residents, together with low levels of social distance are key ingredients to sustaining continuous visits, promote return visitation and stimulate demand for tourist destination(Sinkovics & Penz, 2009). Since the perceived social distance affects tourists’ satisfaction from their visit, reducing this perceived distance can help to develop tourism industry. Also, it needs to be mentioned that the concept of “social distance” in tourism has been less noticed, especially on Iran, and this paper seeks to fill this research gap. So, this paper seeks for an answer to whether the social distance perceived by foreign tourists in the Kish Island has affected their satisfaction from their trip as well as their behavioral intentions for repeating their trip to this region.
Material & In the present study, a group of international tourists who had a trip to the Kish Island were chosen as the statistical population. Stratified Random Sampling was used for tourists’ selection of three famous neighborhoods named Daamoun-e Saaheli, Sadaf and Seffeyn. Considering Cochran's formula, 296 questionnaire forms for evaluating respondents’ responses were used. The statistical data were analyzed properly after measuring the variables.The data were collected using a self-adminstered questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaire was evaluated using content and face validity, and its reliability was measured to be 84% by using Cronbach’s Alpha Coefficient. . The collected data were analyzed by SPSS and LISREL software through statistical tests performed in two levels of “descriptive” (frequency, percent, mean and standard deviation) and “inferential” (structural equation modeling, t-test associated with level of significance, comparative t-tests and variance analysis).
Discussion of Results & The results proved that reducing the perceived social distance will be led to increased satisfaction of tourists. The effect of the social distance on the amount of the perceived risk was also investigated in this study. The results showed that by increasing the social distance led to increased amount of tourists’ perceived risk. The reason lies behind the increased mistrust due to low intimacy feeling between tourists and native residents. The effect of satisfaction level on behavioral intentions was also evaluated. The results showed that tourists’ intentions for repeating their trip to the region increased as their satisfaction level increased. The effect of perceived risk on behavioral intentions was also studied. The results proved tourists’ intentions for repeating their trip to the region decreased as their perceived risk level increased. In addition, the effect of social distance on behavioral intentions was independently investigated in the present research. The results proved no effect of social distance on behavioral intentions- that is, social distance, by itself, could not affect tourists’ behavioral intentions or willing to come back to the destination, without taking perceived risk and satisfaction level into consideration. The rejection of this hypothesis in the present study and in the statistical population of the Kish Island is due to the fact that cultural differences and lock of social relations between native residents and tourists are not the only factors that had influenced tourists’ decision about repeating their trip to the region- if not saying that this social difference some time could even attract more tourism. The effect of perceived risk on tourists’ satisfaction level was studied in this research. The results showed that the lower level of perceived risk would increase tourists’ satisfaction level.

The purpose of the present study was the study of Customer experiences of the service Aquatic sports clubs. The current research is correlational and practical. A researcher - made questionnaire was administered and its reliability was approved by the professors and experts in this field. Its validity was controlled by the alpha Cronbach test. 385 questionnaires were delivered and among them, 250 were filled out and gathered. The sample data used in the present study were all customers of these aquatic sport clubs in Kish Island. The number of the sample was selected due to their availability. In order to describe the demography of the replicants and questions descriptive statistics and in the field of inferential statistics, internal consistency and conformity factor analysis, structural equation modeling were used. To do so MS-Excel SPSS ver 18 and Lisrel ver 8.80 software were chosen. The results of the study revealed that based on costumer experiences of service in Aquatic sports clubs all the relations of the conceptual model were significant except Received value of the variable loyalty. . In other words, the changes in the received value don’t have a significant influence on the loyalty criteria, but its impact can be verified by the satisfaction criteria

In tourism industry, the usage changes in the coastal regions and the adverse impacts of tourism development on the environment is considered as one of the major and concerning issues. Determining the value of maximum carrying capacity for planning in order to reduce environmental damages and protect ecosystems of the coastal band of Kish island and also enhancing its entertainment quality, which has a favorable position due to its coral reefs and white beaches, seems necessary. The present article, based on the assessment of physical-ecological carrying capacity in the context of the protected districts and also assessment of socio-cultural carrying capacity by the use of video recording ICT, through presenting the desirable limit of tourist acceptance in coastal area of Kish Island, tries while minimizing the coastal biologic damages, preserves the capability of this area for supporting the recreational quality of the Island's coastal restores. Since the rules governing the coasts of Iran are different politically and ideologically from the shores of many countries, in this article, the coastal tourist carrying capacity has been organized based on two scenarios. In scenario 1, the carrying capacity has been estimated with respect to common universal standards and in the second scenario with respect to the political criteria and special ideology of Iran’s community. The results show that although a certain number of tourists can be accommodated physically in the coastal area, but with respect to natural and human limiting factors and the present legal and ideological guidelines, there exists more pressure and density in parts of the island coast and In both scenarios, which is more than the carrying capacity of the environment and the tourists.
