In the present study, we focused on Green-Tourism in the developed and rural areas of Shang Hai, China. We studied the conditions which promote Green-Tourism and tourism agriculture and the present status of different types of tourism agriculture, as a case study to analyze the activation of rural areas and the present problems in the development of Green-Tourism in China. Tourism agriculture in large cities of China plays important roles, as well. First, it can preserve the local culture and coordinate activation of local economy. Second, it can improve farmers' incomes, and increase the agricultural goods supply into cities. Third, there are multiplier effects between agriculture and tourism business. And fourth, it can contribute to the development of agriculture industrialization by introducing new farm management system. However, there are problems which can be pointed to regarding Green-Tourism in China. First, the day-tripper Green-Tourist is more numerous than the lengthier overnight or extended-stay type, so it is very difficult to develop a tourism-industry for the lengthier stay form. Second, the tourism-industry practices greatly depend on the seasons. Finally, the individuality of countryside and agriculture has not been untapped.
