In order to achieve economic development in the country, it is necessary to take advantage of all economic capabilities in various sectors. Development through rural tourism has recently made its way into the economic and industrial policies of countries around the world. For this reason, the present study dealt with zoning of the tourism target villages in Hamedan province. Based on this, 21 villages as tourism targets in Hamedan province were examined according to 10 criteria including environmental, political-administrative, water, electricity and gas, education and health, trade and services, cultural and sports, telecommunications, and religious and tourism indicators. TOPSIS technique was used to measure the level of the villages. The results showed that among the villages, Ali Sadr (CL+= 0.780), Faresban (CL+= 0.626), Jourab (CL+= 0.625) and Ashtran(CL+ =0.609) came as the first to fourth priorities in terms of tourism indicators. The results showed that according to the number and ranking of tourism villages in each city, Tuyserkan, Hamedan and Malayer cities were in the first to third tourist clusters, respectively. The Hamedan-Tuyserkan road was recommended to be regarded as the ecotourism cluster by redirecting future investment and infrastructure.
