Abstract: This article takes Yunnan as the example, has analyzed the coupling mechanism between new urbanization systems and tourism systems, used the entropy weighting method to estimate the level of development of its tourism and new urbanization, then based on this, has used system coupled model and the coordinated development of model to measure the degree of coupling and coupling degree of coordination between the two subsystems. This article obtains the following results. First, obviously there has been three spatial classes to Kunming as the center of the proliferation of new urbanization level, the 2nd level presented “V” glyph spatial distribution. Second, The level of tourism development of Northeast Yunnan, Middle Yunnan and Southeast Yunnan must be higher than other areas. Third, but from the states coupling the coordinated development of perspective, Kunming is the high-quality coordination, Lijiang is intermediate being out of balance, Diqing and Xishuangbanna is the primary coordination, Zhaotong is mild being out of balance, other states is to coordinate reluctantly and on the verge of disorder. This indicates that the surrounding area of Kunming on economic and social development of the strong dependence of Kunming. Tourism and new urbanization promote each other, form a virtuous cycle of development, to Yunnan region this is certainly a good road of achieving ecological civilization and economic - social - ecological development, but due to the impact of tourism activities "masking effect" or the "shadow phenomenon" , more should be combined with their own development over the actual local conditions to develop.
