“…Yet, the conservation of ICH in China still encounters a variety of controversy. In the context of rapid urbanisation, modernization and industrialization, ICH faces various challenges including the loss of its originality caused by excessive commercialization; the decreasing number of individuals inheriting ICH across generations; and the waning prevalence of traditional communication methods [16]. Then, the prevalence of a profit-oriented society and swift transformations in public life pose formidable obstacles to the sustainability, safeguarding, and transmission of ICH [17].…”

This essay examines the challenges and strategies associated with the preservation of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) in the rapidly modernizing context of China. This study is aimed to provide practical guidance for safeguarding ICH by utilizing the sustainable development theory. The research methodology involves conducting comprehensive investigations, analyzing case studies, and examining the social, environmental, and economic dimensions of ICH preservation. Final findings indicate that the modernization of ICH can enhance its sustainability by striking a balance between market demands and the preservation of its intrinsic essence. However, it is crucial to avoid inappropriate modernization that may dilute or commodify ICH, thereby jeopardizing its cultural sustainability. The originality of this study lies in its emphasis on the importance of innovative approaches that consider the perspectives of local communities in promoting and preserving ICH. Overall, this research contributes to the understanding of ICH preservation and provides valuable insights into the development of effective strategies and policies for ensuring its long-term sustainability.

“…On the other hand, rural landscapes constitute complex landscape systems [11], requiring comprehensive planning and zonal controls due to the diverse element types and intricate spatial distribution characteristics they possess. Currently, many scholars focus on macro-corridor planning and micro-entity conservation centered around heritage sources, yet a systematic zoning protection method for rural landscape heritage has not been established [12][13][14][15][16]. To preserve the uniqueness and diversity of rural areas, maintain the spatial patterns and local culture, and support sustainable rural development, it is crucial to identify and zone the characteristics of rural landscape heritage systematically.…”

Rural landscape heritage faces issues of landscape character homogenization and unclear protection boundaries. We propose combining landscape character assessment (LCA) methods to identify the characteristics and areas of heritage, aiming to preserve the diversity and integrity of the landscape. This paper focuses on the Li River Basin as the study area, presenting a method for identifying characteristics and areas of rural landscape heritage. It is divided into four steps: selection and spatial scope identification of rural landscape heritage, identification of natural character areas, identification of cultural character areas, and identification and analysis of character areas of rural landscape heritage. Firstly, cultural relic units, traditional villages, and intangible cultural heritage as sources of rural landscape heritage were selected by utilizing the Minimum Cumulative Resistance model (MCR) to calculate the spatial scope of rural landscape heritage. Secondly, clustering and automatic partition methods were employed to classify the Li River Basin into four types of natural character areas. Thirdly, cultural core areas and buffer areas were determined based on the heritage source hierarchy and cultural features. Fourthly, by overlaying heritage spatial ranges, natural character areas, and cultural character areas, 2 levels of heritage areas, 7 types of heritage cultural areas, and 43 heritage character units were obtained. This method not only provides a comprehensive framework for the identification of characteristics and areas for rural landscape heritage but also enhances the integrity of data selection in landscape character assessment methods at the cultural level.

“…In recent years, major applications of GIS in China's cultural heritage protection have encompassed information management, protection platforms [11,12], visualization of archaeological data [13,14], and disaster risk assessment [15][16][17]. In addition, the development of GIS has provided new ideas for the protection of cultural heritage, and the research method involving analysis of the spatial and temporal distribution of cultural heritage using GIS technology has become a hotspot that is widely discussed by scholars [18][19][20][21]. For example, Liu Jing et al take the industry of modern cities as an entry point; they construct a GIS database and use kernel density analysis, mean center analysis, and other methods to study the spatial and temporal evolution and distribution of modern industry in China [8].…”

This study focuses on the cultural heritage of Xiamen and uses the spatial analysis method of ArcGIS to analyze the spatiotemporal evolution and distribution characteristics of cultural heritage. Through analysis, we aim to optimize the structure of cultural heritage protection areas and tourism routes in urban planning by analyzing the spatial structure characteristics of Xiamen’s cultural heritage types in various historical periods. The results show that in terms of the time dimension, the existing cultural heritage in Xiamen was mainly built between 1840 and 1949, and the center of cultural heritage shows an overall trend of a “north-south direction”. In terms of spatial dimension, the existing cultural height in Xiamen shows a clustering distribution pattern, with clusters located in the Gulangyu and Xiagang areas of Siming District. According to the period, there is a clear spatial correlation pattern, showing a spatial clustering trend of “strong first and then weak”.
