The questionnaire was collected from Taiwan and Mainland China. The effective questionnaire obtained was 514 copies. After applying structural equation modeling (SEM) to test the theoretical model, the research results showed that the effects of servicescape on experiential value and behavior intentions are significant. And the effect of experiential value on behavior intentions is also significant. Through the independent samples t-test, the experiential value and servicescapes have a statistically significant difference in Taiwan and Mainland China.
