: Z?yander?d’s gradual drying and its social and environmental consequences, including the death of the Gavkhoni International Wetland, the local climate change, the production of haze, the unemployment of East Isfahan farmers, and the recent protests, have become a serious crisis and a national issue, and it has attracted considerable attention by both scientific experts and the media. In the east of Isfahan province, there are many potentialities for the development of service and industry activities which are not depending on water or only need little water, including tourism. Therefore, considering the problems of this region in recent years and reducing farmers’ income levels, ecotourism and tourism in line with agricultural activities can be used as a source of income for the local population and job creation as long as the status of the Z?yander?d’s improves. To this end, in this study, using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Geographic Information System (GIS), we evaluated the tourism potential of Gavkhoni Wetland, and economic valuation of agricultural lands. Moreover, tourism was done using market pricing method in Varzaneh city. To determine the social tourism carrying capacity and the people’s willingness to establish tourist units in this area, questionnaires were prepared and completed through interviews with residents of the region. In order to evaluate the environmental tourism capacity with emphasis on ecotourism, 4 criteria and 21 sub-criteria based on the review of the literature and expert opinions were selected. Based on standard fuzzy logic, they were weighed based on opinions of 30 experts and finally represented by weighted linear combination (WLC). The largest weights were allocated to the distance from the historical, religious, natural attractions, compatibility of existing applications with tourism and anthropological attractions ratio.The results of the assessment of regional tourism capability showed that 2.88% of the area has high capacity, 27.17% average capacity, 49.08% low capacity and 20.87% has very low capacity. In order to estimate the economic value of agricultural products, land use and agricultural land maps were prepared using Sentinel-2 satellite images. Then, the designed questionnaires were used to calculate the net income of crops in the study area before and after the drought. According to the results, the amount of income from agriculture before the drought has been 8,232,125 million rials and after the drought is 1,761,794 million rials. This represents a reduction by 4.6 times and reduction of 78.6 percent in farm income in the region after the drought. Moreover, in order to estimate the economic value of tourism in this area, using the method of valuation at the market price, the net income of tourism units and accommodation units in the region were calculated. The results showed that at the moment the net annual income of tourism in these units is about 18,578 million rials. In addition, the results of the social acceptance questionnaire in the region showed that people’s ability and willingness to build accommodation units is more than other items. Moreover, the ability and willingness to build accommodation units has a significant relationship with the income level of individuals. The final evaluations showed that tourism in this region cannot be a substitute for agriculture. However, with planning and more appropriate infrastructure and paying more attention, it is possible to partially compensate for loss of income from drought.
