It is urgent to argue whether cultural relics should be protected or developed.

What is the significance of protecting urban historical and cultural heritage?

The reporter first asked Professor Li about the significance of protecting China's historical and cultural heritage.

Li said that the significance of urban historical and cultural heritage protection mainly includes four aspects: historical research-historical and cultural value, scientific research-scientific value, tourism development-economic value and sustainable development. First of all, we look at the value of urban culture from the perspective of historical research.

Urban cultural heritage is the witness of urban historical development and an important basis for urban historical research. Studying the history of urban and human development, making the past serve the present, is conducive to promoting urban development.

In the process of historical science research, it is found that historical ancient cities, buildings and structures (such as Zhao Zhouqiao, Dujiangyan and Egyptian pyramids in China) all have profound scientific principles, and some even have scientific theories that people do not know so far. Protecting the historical and cultural heritage, especially the historical and cultural heritage of China, which has condensed more than 3,000 years of history and culture, is of great significance to scientific research.

Li said that it is these urban cultural heritages created by human progress that provide good conditions for the development of our city-developing urban tourism and intuitively expressing the unique charm of urban history and culture with economic value is conducive to the better development of the city. China's 5,000-year historical and cultural heritage is rich and fascinating. It has attracted countless people in China and made foreigners yearn for it. These are important resources for the development of urban tourism, and also important places for people to relax, sightseeing and beautify. Xiaozhouzhuang (town) has an annual tourism income of 200 million yuan, and the growth rate is also amazing.

With the improvement of economic level, the income brought by tourism is also increasing, and the proportion of tourism in the national economy is also increasing. China has great potential for urban historical and cultural tourism. The historical and cultural heritage of Zhangye City in China is much richer and more valuable than that of Takayama City in Japan. The proportion of tourism revenue in Zhangye City, China is much lower than that in Takayama City, Japan, which is less than 10% and more than 70%.

In a word, protecting historical and cultural heritage is of great significance. The state invests 20 million yuan every year for the protection of famous historical and cultural cities. When Old Town of Lijiang, a famous historical and cultural city as a world cultural heritage, suffered an earthquake, the international community gave a lot of donations. Protecting urban historical and cultural heritage is a long-term strategy of urban management.

Global Agenda 2 1 century points out that an important aspect of sustainable development is the protection of historical and cultural heritage. Protect historical and cultural heritage and benefit future generations. In the early 1980s, when planning Pingyao and Zhouzhuang, Professor Ruan of Tongji University made plans to protect ancient towns and open up new areas, and tried to persuade them to preserve Pingyao ancient city and Zhouzhuang town, making Pingyao a world cultural heritage. Zhouzhuang is expected to be included in the world cultural heritage list. Professor Ruan is a great hero in protecting cultural heritage. At the same time, the decision-makers who accepted the protection advice at that time were also heroes.

Li said that China's historical and cultural heritage is very rich and precious. Unfortunately, it was destroyed constructively in the economic development. In the 1970s, the historical value of Taigu and other cities was no less than Pingyao, but now it is gone. Fuzhou's "three lanes and seven lanes" were "changed" in the transformation of the old city. These are all very sad. Experts believe that since the reform and opening up, the constructive destruction of history and culture in urban development has surpassed the "breaking the four old" and the "Cultural Revolution". The west is an ancient "Silk Road" with rich and precious historical and cultural heritage. In the development of the western region and urban management, we must learn lessons, consciously and pay special attention to protecting historical and cultural heritage, continuing China culture and benefiting future generations.

Protect historical and cultural heritage and enhance the value of urban assets.

Li said that our historical and cultural heritage is undoubtedly a powerful development wealth of this city. Historical and cultural heritage is an important tourism resource and also a tourism asset. Therefore, protecting historical and cultural heritage can enhance the value of urban assets. The historical and cultural heritage of Pingyao ancient city and Zhouzhuang town is well protected, the tourism industry is well developed and the value of urban assets is much higher. Hangzhou's historical and cultural heritage is well planned, and the real estate price is much higher.

So, which urban cultural heritage should be included in the historical and cultural heritage for protection, development and utilization?

Li said that the protection of historical and cultural heritage mainly includes four aspects: the protection of cultural relics, the protection of historical sites, the protection and continuation of ancient city features, and the inheritance and development of historical traditional culture.

The first is the protection of historical sites. Cultural relics include a variety of scattered ancient buildings, ancient gardens, historical sites, sites, memorial sites for outstanding people, and historical structures such as ancient trees and bridges.

Second, protect historical sites. Historical sites include cultural relics and historical blocks. Cultural relics sites refer to sites composed of areas where cultural relics (including relics) are concentrated and their surrounding environment. Historical block refers to a residential area with a certain number and scale of historical buildings and a relatively complete style. The whole region reflects the style of a certain historical era and has high value.

Protection and continuation of ancient city features. The protection and continuation of the ancient city style includes three parts: the spatial pattern of the ancient city, the natural environment of the ancient city and the architectural style of the city.

The spatial pattern of the ancient city includes the plane layout, azimuth axis, road skeleton, river network and water system of the ancient city. They can reflect the humanistic landscape, planning and layout concept, historical development and social and cultural pattern of the city; The natural environment of the ancient city includes important topography, landforms, gardening, mountains, water, flowers, trees and gardening related to the important history of the city and its suburbs. The natural environment of a city is closely related to its landscape, culture and ecology. The architectural style of the ancient city includes architectural style, height, volume, materials, plane layout and the relationship with surrounding buildings. Architectural style affects urban characteristics.

1. Now cultural relics and historic sites are in danger of being destroyed by human tourists.

The significance of protecting cultural relics and historic sites is a kind of respect for ancestors.

3. Put a sign next to the cultural relics to tell people that the cultural relics are the symbol of China, and also the things that ancient people in China used, ate and wore.

It's time to propose actions to the government to protect cultural relics.

Developing tourism, especially cultural relics, is conducive to local economic development; With the development of economy, there will be money for the maintenance and restoration of cultural relics, which is a virtuous circle.

If we overuse and develop tourism resources without paying attention to the protection of cultural relics and scenic spots, it will inevitably lead to the destruction of scenic spots, which will soon lead to the decline of tourism and eventually lead to the slowdown or stagnation of economic development. This is a vicious circle.
