In order to develop tourism, it is very necessary to know the resources, capacities, issues and strategies.The north of Fars province, despite its climatic and geographical diversity, as well as the important resources of tourism development, both historical and natural, has been neglected, and the implementation of some projects, including freeway Isfahan-Shiraz, will isolate the region's tourism. The purpose of this research is to identify the strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities in the field of tourism growth and development in the northern region of Fars province and then formulate effective strategies in this field to overcome the existing and future problems and problems.

The research method is descriptive-analytical and based on the collection of survey data. The data collection tool is a questionnaire.

The statistical population of the research is made up of tourists. The number of samples was calculated to be 384 people.The analysis of the model showed that the strengths with a score of 4.05 due to the climatic diversity and tourism resources of the region, as well as the opportunity points with a score of 3.976 due to the geographical and strategic location, are the most important capacities. Weak points with a score of 3.545 and threat points with a score of 3.705 are known in the next ranks due to the lack of facilities and threats, as well as the construction of the Isfahan-Shiraz freeway.
