| With China’s new countryside construction and the pace of the new urbanization steadily, there are two major tasks for frontier minority village, which are to develop the rural economy and to protect the heritage village of the traditional culture. Therefore, village culture, especially the minority village culture research has become the current hot spots, the research contents are mainly about two big subjects, that is, the village culture protection and village tourism development. Previous scholars did the research on village culture mainly from the perspective of sociology, ethnology, anthropology, history and so on, but now the study of village culture presents a multidisciplinary integration and the trend of the research content is becoming more and more sophisticated.Based on the field survey about half a month, the study chooses the Wa ancient tourism village of ethnic minorities on southwest border in Yunnan as the research objects and uses the research method of integrating sociology with geography on the basis of the fieldwork to classify the village culture factors of research objects, and identifies four village cultural construction: village construction, religious belief, folk customs and tourism derivatives and classifies Wa villagers into four categories, namely, ordinary villagers, village elites, religious personnel and government personnel. It also obtains interpretation about culture and village factor among different population under the local cultural structure by using interview, observation, experimental method and identifies Wending village’s elements. Finally, based on village culture structure, it draws the village tourism and cultural development countermeasures and suggestions by analyzing present problems of Wengding village tourism development. By studying Wa culture structure of ancient villages and tourism culture development mode, it draws the following three conclusions:(1) The research on community residents is the most important way to know the structure of village culture and community residents are also the main crowd who are involved in the protection of traditional village culture heritage.(2) The new rural construction planning must take the community residents’ will into consideration.(3) The development of village tourism and cultural should be in accordance with cultural traditions of minority areas. I hope it can promote the harmonious development of economic society in national regions culture through this research. |
