Research on the Implementation Pathway of Facilitating the Development of New Cultural Business Formats through the Historical and Cultural Heritage Corridors in the Minjiang River Basin

Abstract

After investigating the historical and cultural heritage resources within the Minjiang River Basin, this research constructs a spatial mechanism centered on the “heritage entity-thematic tourism trails-landscape corridors-interpretation system” based on the concept of “heritage corridor”. It also proposes a four-in-one development path for new cultural business forms, namely, “points-lines-networks-information”, which specifically includes: (1) Innovatively transforming “Point-like” heritage resources and utilizing digital technology to extract and reproduce cultural elements; (2) Optimizing the experience of “Line-like” cultural heritage by designing thematic tourism trails to enhance heritage linkage and dissemination effectiveness; (3) Establishing a “Network-like” industrial platform to promote the integration of cultural heritage with multiple sectors such as agriculture, industry, education, and cultural tourism; (4) Constructing an intelligent “Information” cognitive environment and leveraging the integration of digital technologies to enhance heritage interpretation and immersive experience levels. The construction of a heritage corridor in the Minjiang River Basin can effectively promote the systematic protection and living transmission of cultural heritage. By empowering through technology, integrating industries, and fostering cultural identity, it can enable, support, and cultivate the development of new cultural business formats featuring high-quality integration of “historical and cultural heritage + digital technology”. The research aims to create a unique cultural identity for the Minjiang River Basin and make sustained efforts in promoting a new image of Fujian.
