The Significance of Developing Red Tourism

Red tourism mainly refers to the theme tourism activities that take revolutionary history, revolutionary deeds and revolutionary spirit as the carrier, and organize and receive tourists to study and visit in order to commemorate the Communist Party of China (CPC)'s great achievements during the revolution and war. The development of red tourism is of great practical and far-reaching historical significance for strengthening the education of revolutionary tradition, enhancing the patriotic feelings of the people of the whole country, especially the young people, carrying forward and cultivating the national spirit, and promoting the coordinated economic and social development of the old revolutionary base areas.

(A) is conducive to strengthening and improving patriotism education in the new period. China has entered a new development stage of building a well-off society in an all-round way and accelerating socialist modernization. Facing the new situation and new tasks, the way of patriotism education urgently needs to be improved and innovated. Actively developing red tourism, including carrying out ideological and moral education during sightseeing, and conveying revolutionary history, revolutionary tradition and revolutionary spirit to the broad masses of the people through tourism, is conducive to spreading advanced culture, improving people's ideological and moral quality, enhancing the effect of patriotic education, giving people knowledge, spiritual shock, spiritual inspiration and ideological enlightenment, and making people more confident to devote themselves to the cause of building Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

(two) is conducive to the protection and utilization of revolutionary historical and cultural heritage. The 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to vigorously support the protection of important cultural heritage and the cultural development in the border areas and the central and western regions of the young and old, with the important purpose of building and consolidating the socialist ideological and cultural front. Revolutionary historical and cultural heritage is the precious spiritual wealth of the Chinese nation. Patriotic education bases such as memorial halls, revolutionary sites and martyrs' cemeteries in all parts of the country, especially in the old revolutionary areas, are important positions of socialist ideology and culture. Developing red tourism, protecting, managing and making good use of these revolutionary historical and cultural heritages are of great and far-reaching significance for building and consolidating socialist ideological and cultural positions, vigorously developing advanced culture, supporting healthy and beneficial culture, striving to transform cultural backwardness and resolutely resisting decadent culture.

(3) It is conducive to promoting the coordinated economic and social development of the old revolutionary base areas. Most of the old revolutionary areas are located in remote areas, and the level of economic development is generally not high. It is an important task for party committees and governments at all levels to help the people in the old areas get rid of poverty and become rich as soon as possible. Developing red tourism is an effective measure to drive people in old areas out of poverty and become rich. It can transform historical, cultural and resource advantages into economic advantages, promote economic restructuring, cultivate characteristic industries, promote ecological construction and environmental protection, promote the development of business services, transportation and telecommunications, urban and rural construction and other related industries, expand employment and increase income, and inject new vitality into the economic and social development of the old revolutionary base areas.

(4) It is beneficial to cultivate new growth points of tourism development. With the continuous improvement of China's per capita income level, residents' tourism consumption expenditure has increased year by year, which puts forward new requirements for tourism content and products. Tourism urgently needs to further adjust and improve the product structure to better meet people's diverse, multi-level and multi-form spiritual and cultural needs. As an important part of tourism, red tourism plays an active role in meeting tourism demand, promoting tourism development, enhancing tourism development potential and opening up a broader tourism consumption market.
