National traditional sports are an important part of China’s traditional culture. Developing national traditional sports tourism will help promote “cultural confidence” and enrich China’s sports tourism product system. The development characteristics of national traditional sports tourism include distinctive national characteristics，significant regional differences，and comprehensive functions. The development model of traditional ethnic sports tourism is mainly based on “travel festivals” to carry out traditional ethnic sports tourism，organize traditional sports tourism through the holding of sports events，and cultivate “sports towns” to carry out traditional ethnic sports tourism. However，at present，there are many constraints on the development of national traditional sports tourism，both subjectively and objectively. In the future，national sports tourism products with deep experience and strong participation will be more popular with tourists，large-scale national sports events will have a wider impact，and traditional national sports leisure and wellness products will be more and more popular with tourists. In addition，development suggestions were put forward from the three levels of the government，scenic spots and public.
