The results show that: ①The index of economic system of Dunhuang city has changed with a obvious stage characteristics. In the first stage, all indexes has changed relatively stable, but sensitivity and fragility were gradual decline in the second stage. ② The vulnerability of economic system of Dunhuang city is the accumulation type of endogenous structure, sensitivity have a more significant influence on the fragility.③Education spending accounts for local fiscal expenditure, tourism revenue growth, tourism revenues accounts for GDP, the number of traffic accident and tourism growth elasticity coefficient are the main influencing factors to the economy system vulnerability of Dunhuang city, while GDP per capita, tourism growth elasticity coefficient and disposable income of urban residents are the main obstacle factors for improve coping capacity of economy system.④ Dunhuang city should be to promoting the development of tourism economy continuously in the future, pay more attention to the adjustment and optimization of industrial structure, promoting the development of industrial diversification and the response capacity of economic system vigorously at the same time, so as to improving the sustainable development ability and level of social and economic.
