Is the development of cultural relics tourism the destruction or protection of cultural relics?

Lv Wei Chuangjing Planning and Design Institute believes that the development of cultural relics tourism can deeply explore the intrinsic value of cultural relics resources, show the cultural connotation represented by cultural relics, and inherit and develop profound cultural connotations and details through tourism activities. Only through the methods and ideas of tourism planning can we better reproduce the profound connotation of cultural relics resources, make this kind of protection and inheritance become the conscious behavior of the public, change "passive protection" into "active protection" and truly realize "protective development"

As a special resource, cultural relics are the material carriers of material civilization and spiritual civilization created by human beings in long-term social activities, the representative objects of social development level left over from history, rich historical information and precious wealth left by predecessors. Its non-renewable nature determines that the protection of cultural relics is the premise. However, we don't agree with the extreme view that only protection does not develop. Rational utilization is the best protection for cultural relics.

1, reasonable utilization can produce good social benefits.

Cultural relics are valuable cultural resources for us to engage in scientific research, carry out patriotism and revolutionary tradition education, and build socialist spiritual civilization and material civilization. The rational use of cultural relics can highlight the value and function of cultural relics, carry forward cultural relics and enlighten the world. Such rational utilization can make people acquire rich knowledge, arouse people's love for cultural relics, deepen their understanding of the value and significance of cultural relics, and enhance their awareness of cultural relics protection, thus directly or indirectly playing a role in cultural relics protection.

2. Rational utilization can produce huge economic benefits and solve the problem of insufficient funds for cultural relics protection to a certain extent.

Undoubtedly, rich historical and cultural heritage is a valuable asset for local economic construction and social sustainable development. The utilization of cultural relics can promote the development of tourism and other related industries. For example, Datong, Pingyao and other places in Shanxi Province give full play to the advantages of cultural relics, actively declare world cultural heritage, and are successfully selected into the World Heritage List, which not only improves the popularity of cultural relics resources, but also makes related tourist attractions gain huge economic benefits. The improvement of economic benefits, in turn, can more effectively support cultural relics protection and solve the problem of insufficient funds often encountered in cultural relics protection.
