Through top-level design, planning guidance and policy support, it has formed a system of multi-type ecological tourism areas, facilitated the development of ecological products’ value, strived for the maximization of eco-product value, and achieved some initial results mirrored in some models. The most typical ones are Pingjiang county’s innovation of an “eco-tourism-poverty alleviation” interactive development mechanism and Yueyang city’s innovation of eco-tourism mode centering on the wetland ecosystem protection in Dongting Lake. The main enlightenments of Hunan’s explorations and practices on the value realization of ecological products are as follows.
