[preface] historical and cultural heritage carries the genes and blood of the Chinese nation. It belongs not only to our generation, but also to future generations. Archaeological sites and historical relics are historical witnesses and must be well protected and utilized. Historical and cultural heritage carries the genes and blood of the Chinese nation. It belongs not only to our generation, but also to our children and grandchildren. We should fear history, culture and ecology, fully protect historical and cultural heritage, coordinate tourism development, characteristic management and ancient city protection, build a solid bottom line for the safety of cultural relics, and protect the precious wealth left by our predecessors. —— We should protect, inherit and carry forward the Yangtze River culture. The Yangtze River has created a millennium context from Bashan SHUSHUI to Jiangnan Water Town. It is a representative symbol of the Chinese nation and a symbolic symbol of Chinese civilization. It is an important source of cultivating socialist core values. We should protect, inherit and carry forward the Yangtze River culture, continue the historical context and strengthen cultural confidence. We should protect the cultural relics and cultural heritage of the Yangtze River, deeply study the cultural connotation of the Yangtze River, and promote the creative transformation and innovative development of excellent traditional culture. We should integrate the historical culture and landscape culture of the Yangtze River with urban and rural development, highlight local characteristics, and adopt more "embroidery" efforts of "micro transformation" to repair historical and cultural blocks. —— Archaeological sites and historical relics are historical witnesses and must be well protected and utilized. We should establish and improve the asset management system of historical and cultural heritage resources, build a large database of national cultural relics resources, strengthen the overall guidance of the general survey of cultural relics resources and the publication of catalogues in relevant fields, strengthen technical support and guide social participation. We should put the protection of historical and cultural heritage in the first place and make rational use of it, so that it can play a full role in providing public cultural services and meeting the needs of people's spiritual and cultural life. We should improve the protection mechanism of immovable cultural relics and incorporate the protection and management of cultural relics into the formulation and implementation of land and space planning. It is necessary to formulate the system design and supporting policies of "archaeology before transfer", and the land that may have historical and cultural relics shall not be used until the archaeological investigation, exploration and excavation are completed according to law. We should deeply learn lessons from major cultural relics disasters and accidents at home and abroad, supervise the implementation of the main responsibility, strengthen the rectification of hidden dangers, and enhance the ability to protect historical and cultural heritage. We should strengthen law enforcement and supervision, standardize the reporting process, and severely crack down on cultural relics crimes. —— The Yangtze River Delta region has an early urban development and construction, many old urban areas and heavy transformation tasks. This matter involves the vital interests of the masses and the long-term development of the city. No matter how difficult it is, we must find a solution. At the same time, we should not demolish and build all large-scale. We should pay attention to protecting the history, culture and urban style, and avoid "one side of a thousand cities and one appearance of ten thousand buildings". —— Yungang Grottoes are a world cultural heritage. The protection of Yungang Grottoes is not only of Chinese significance, but also of world significance. Historical and cultural heritage is a non renewable and irreplaceable precious resource. We should always put protection first. The development of tourism should be based on protection, not over commercialization, and make tourism a process for people to understand Chinese culture and enhance cultural self-confidence. We should deeply explore the historical connotation of the exchanges and integration of various ethnic groups contained in Yungang Grottoes, and enhance the awareness of the Chinese nation community. —— Shaanxi is one of the important birthplaces of the Chinese nation and Chinese civilization. We should strengthen the protection of cultural relics, carry forward the excellent traditional Chinese culture, revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture, cultivate socialist core values, strengthen the supply of public cultural products and services, and better meet the needs of the people's spiritual and cultural life. —— Urban planning and construction should attach great importance to the protection of history and culture, do not rush for quick success and instant benefits, and do not dismantle and build large-scale buildings. We should highlight local characteristics, pay attention to the improvement of living environment, adopt more "embroidery" skills such as micro transformation, and pay attention to the inheritance of civilization and cultural continuity, so as to leave a memory for the city and let people remember nostalgia. —— Tongzhou has many historical and cultural heritages. We should make the past serve the present and deeply tap the historical and cultural resources with the Grand Canal as the core. Protecting the Grand Canal is the common responsibility of all regions along the canal, and Beijing should actively play an exemplary role. —— Party committees and governments at all levels should strengthen their awe of historical relics, establish the scientific concept that the protection of cultural relics is also a political achievement, coordinate the protection of cultural relics and economic and social development, fully implement the working policy of "protection first, rescue first, rational utilization and strengthening management", earnestly strengthen the protection of cultural relics, promote the rational and appropriate utilization of cultural relics, and make the achievements of cultural relics protection more benefit the people. Cultural relics departments at all levels should live up to their mission, guard the land and fulfill their responsibilities, improve their quality and ability and the level of management according to law, widely mobilize social forces to participate, strive to find a road for the protection and utilization of cultural relics in line with national conditions, and make greater contributions to the realization of the goals of the "two centenaries" and the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. —— We should enhance the livability of cities, guide and regulate the scale of cities, optimize the layout of urban space, strengthen the construction of municipal infrastructure, and protect historical and cultural heritage. —— History and culture are the soul of a city. We should protect the city's historical and cultural heritage as we cherish our own lives. Beijing is a world-famous ancient capital, and its rich historical and cultural heritage is a golden card. It is the responsibility of the capital to inherit and protect this precious historical and cultural heritage. In the spirit of being responsible for history and the people, we should inherit the historical context, deal with the relationship between urban transformation and development and the protection and utilization of historical and cultural heritage, and earnestly develop and protect in protection and development. —— (Xinhua News Agency)
