2024-08-12
Recently, the Leading Group for the Protection of Historical and Cultural Cities in Jiangmen City was established, which will compare the application conditions and standards of national historical and cultural cities, and make every effort to promote the city application work within three years. Jiangmen has a long history and profound cultural heritage. At present, the only world cultural heritage in Guangdong Province is "the Kaiping Diaolou and Villages"; We have one national level historical and cultural town - Chikan Overseas Chinese Ancient Town, four national level historical and cultural villages including Pengjiang Liangxi Village and Taishan Fushi Village, and 17 national level traditional villages including Xinhui Chakeng Village and Tianma Village; It has 5 provincial-level historical and cultural blocks, including Pengjiang Changdi and Xinhui Xuegong, 239 cultural relics protection units at all levels, 1770 immovable cultural relics, 269 officially recognized historical buildings, 2 industrial heritages, 34 intangible cultural heritages at or above the provincial level, as well as the former residences of famous overseas Chinese figures such as Situ Meitang. In recent years, Jiangmen has been committed to improving its institutional mechanisms, planning and coordinating, innovating and revitalizing methods, and continuously increasing efforts to protect its historical and cultural heritage. For example, Jiangmen invested 1.5 million yuan in the renovation of historical buildings in Enping City. Taishan has launched a revitalization and quality improvement project for its historical and cultural blocks, completing comprehensive management and quality enhancement of 40 streets and alleys in two historical and cultural blocks within its jurisdiction, and recreating the historical style of "Little Guangzhou" in Taicheng. Kaiping adopts the cooperation model of "resources+capital+intelligence" and invests about 6.6 billion yuan to promote the protection, revitalization, and utilization of buildings in the famous Chinese historical and cultural town of Chikan Overseas Chinese Ancient Town. It aims to build it into a demonstration area for historical and cultural protection and revitalization, a window and platform for showcasing overseas Chinese culture, and a new landmark for cultural tourism in the Greater Bay Area. In July of this year, Xinhua News Agency's Outlook Think Tank released the "2024 Most Promising Cultural and Tourism Cities Report", and Jiangmen successfully ranked among the 12 "Most Promising Cultural and Tourism Cities" in China. During the May Day holiday, Jiangmen received a total of 2.249 million tourists, an increase of 10.36% compared to 2023. The tourism revenue was 1.317 billion yuan, an increase of 6.58% compared to 2023. (New Society)
