The present study sought to examine the factors that affecting tourists' length of stay (LOS) by focusing on domestic tourists. Direct and indirect effects of brand equity dimensions on tourists' LOS were investigated. The population included domestic tourists, who visited Sareyn in May, 2017. The sample consisted of 421 visitors who were selected through convenient sampling. The questionnaire collected data were analyzed using SPSS 24 and SmartPLS2.
