Make the strength of industrial heritage 'out of the circle'

2024-12-24   

Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued a notice announcing the sixth batch of national industrial heritage list, with 37 industrial heritage sites listed. The first and second batches of national industrial heritage lists that have been reviewed and the list of projects that need to be rectified will be announced simultaneously. In March last year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "National Industrial Heritage Management Measures", which clearly supported the use of national industrial heritage resources to develop industrial tourism projects with functions such as production process experience, historical and cultural education, popular science education, and promotion of characteristic products. The industrial heritage, including buildings, factories, warehouses, and machinery, has witnessed the development process of industrialization in China and is also an important component of our country's historical and cultural heritage. The protection and utilization of industrial heritage can not only promote urban spatial layout and reconstruction, the rise of industrial tourism and cultural and creative industries, but also stimulate consumption and drive regional economic development. In recent years, leveraging the development of cultural tourism industry, a number of industrial heritage sites such as Beijing 798 Art District and Shougang Park have been activated, radiating new vitality. However, the difficulty of transforming industrial heritage such as factories, relatively low economic benefits, long return periods, single products, unclear characteristics, and relatively small market size still constrain the revitalization of China's industrial heritage and the development of industrial tourism. Only by promoting the strength of industrial heritage can we leave a trace of "industrial nostalgia" for the city. Incorporate industrial heritage into the overall urban planning. Old factories, old equipment and other industrial heritage record the footsteps of the times and condense the history of industrial civilization transformation and upgrading. They cannot be dismantled at once. Only a two-way pursuit of protection and utilization can maximize the value of industrial heritage. We should promote utilization through protection, and better protect through utilization, truly making industrial heritage come alive and on fire. To understand the industrial heritage in the region and incorporate it into the overall urban planning, so that industrial heritage and urban planning complement each other; We should pay more attention to the scientific and sustainable transformation of industrial heritage, and achieve a harmonious coexistence between industrial heritage and urban construction. Deeply explore the connotation of industrial heritage. Industrial heritage is an important carrier of industrial culture, and it is necessary to further explore the cultural value of industrial heritage, summarize and extract the cultural and spiritual connotations of industrial heritage in different periods and categories. Utilize industrial heritage and old factory resources to build industrial museums, corporate memorial halls, etc; Tailored to local conditions, we will create industrial heritage theme parks and public recreational spaces, create industrial cultural industry parks, characteristic blocks, innovation and entrepreneurship bases, cultural and tourism consumption venues, cultivate new formats and models of industrial tourism, industrial design, arts and crafts, cultural creativity, etc., promote the integration of culture and industry, technology, products, and regions, inherit industrial culture, tell the story of Chinese industry well, and continuously improve the "activation" utilization level of industrial heritage. Make concerted efforts to plan industrial tourism. Industrial tourism is a new topic that requires the joint efforts of the government and enterprises to formulate tourism development ideas and directions, and improve infrastructure. When developing tourism routes and products, the cultural and tourism department should combine industrial tourism with traditional natural scenery sightseeing, green ecological tourism, red tourism and other projects, promote them as a whole, and integrate industrial tourism into the overall tourism pattern. In the development of industrial heritage parks, we should promote the research and development of cultural products in response to market demand within the region, provide rich cultural products, and effectively enhance citizens' enthusiasm for cultural consumption; We also need to cultivate new business models, while maintaining the advantages of our existing industrial heritage, we should focus on expanding new development spaces in areas such as "industrial culture+technology", "industrial culture+creative design", and "industrial culture+agriculture", and form influential industrial tourism brands.
