Abstract

This study examined the causal structure forming willingness to pay (WTP) for historic landscape restoration from possible natural and man-made disasters in Kyoto. The result of structural equation modeling can be summarized as follows: (1) the respondents who recognize functions the historical landscape conserve the comfortable environment and the regional culture and history tend to have higher values to the landscape and are also aware of higher risks of natural disasters that could destroy the historical landscape. Such respondents having these evaluations stated higher WTP. (2) Kyoto residents tend to state higher WTP through direct and indirect pathways. The result suggests there is a strong regional effect on WTP reflecting Kyoto residents' affection on their daily environments and cultural-historical backgrounds. (3) The positive income effect on WTP consists of the direct effect based on paying capacity and the indirect effect on the basis of rich knowledge of culture and history.
