Local Culture and Ecology in Beautiful Rural Construction: Principles, Practices and Preservation

Abstract

With the prosperity and development of the economy and culture, the society pays more and more attention to the construction of beautiful villages. The local cultural landscape can fully express the geographical characteristics and development process of a village and has an important protection and continuity effect on the material spiritual culture. In the context of advocating the Beautiful Rural Construction (BRC), the paper aims to analyze local culture landscapes according to different local conditions and cultural differences. Detailed insights are drawn from the analysis of Wuyuan's successful preservation of its local culture, the snowscape of Heilongjiang and how it has tailored its landscape construction to local conditions, Yan'an's expression of both old and new cultural elements and Xinjiang Muji County's harmonious blending of ecological beauty and cultural life. The paper concludes with design suggestions to respect original ecology, inherit national customs and embrace modern styles in revitalizing local landscapes.
