As an ecological organic whole,the style and appearance of traditional villages is an important carrier to show the unique cultural and spiritual connotations of traditional villages.It records the historical memory of the village for thousands of years,reflects the daily life of the current villagers,and carries the deep nostalgia of countless homeless wanderers.In the wave of urbanization and modernization,people have carried out unreasonable transformation and construction of villages,causing irreversible damage to the style of traditional villages,and a large number of villages have lost their original vitality and vitality.The protection of traditional village styles is urgent.Niuren Village,Fenghuang County,Xiangxi Autonomous Prefecture,Hunan Province is one of the traditional Miao villages with relatively well-preserved features of the Miao ethnic group.The village has original natural features and cultural features accumulated over hundreds of years.It is a typical representative of the social and cultural development and characteristic features of traditional villages in western Hunan.It has important ecological and cultural value,social and economic value and emotional sustenance value.In 2015,under the promotion of the targeted poverty alleviation policy and the construction of beautiful villages,Niuren Village carried out a series of protection practices.First,Niuren Village relies on the traditional village protection policies and regulations promulgated by the state to formulate a village protection and development plan for Niuren Village;secondly,Niuren Village actively carries out the improvement of the living environment,restores the ecological environment in the village,and improves the sanitary conditions of the village;Niuren Village started to rescue the existing material cultural heritage in the village,mainly repairing traditional dwellings,transforming Ma Xinzuo’s former residence and building a cultural square to better preserve the architectural style;finally,Niuren Village excavated and sorted out the intangible cultural heritage in the village,For example,sorting out folk literature and restoring traditional folk activities to enrich the spiritual activities of the villagers.In general,the protection of the features of Niuren Village has achieved phased results,making the village successfully included in the fifth batch of Chinese traditional villages list in 2018,and included in the Chinese ethnic minority villages in 2019,becoming a local characteristic demonstration village.But dialectically,the effect and the problem always coexist.At present,there are still some practical problems in the protection of the style and features of Niuren Village,such as certain damage to the architectural style,incomplete protection of intangible culture,lagging behind in the renewal of the supporting infrastructure of the village,and the phenomenon of the hollowing out of the village.The deep-seated reasons are mainly due to the impact of the modernization process,the limitation of the natural ecological environment,the shortage of funds for the protection of landscapes,the imperfect legal system and management mechanism,and the weak protection awareness of various subjects.The report of the 19 th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to implement the strategy of rural revitalization,to clarify a new direction for the protection of traditional village features,and to provide scientific theoretical guidance for promoting the long-term continuation of village features.As a non-renewable village resource,the protection of the style and features of Niuren Village should be based on the rural revitalization strategy.This is a realistic proposition for the protection of traditional village styles and features,and it is also a requirement to achieve the overall goal of rural revitalization.In order to solve the current predicament in the protection of the style and features of Niuren Village,Niuren Village should adhere to the guidance of the style protection plan,establish the concept of overall protection of the village style and features,and improve relevant laws and policies;To meet the general requirements of ecological livability,rural civilization,effective governance,and affluent life”,we should comprehensively grasp the protection of Niuren Village’s features,that is,in terms of ecological livability,we must continue to promote the protection of Niuren Village’s ecological features and the construction of supporting infrastructure in the village,and then Improve the living level of villagers and create a beautiful living environment;in terms of rural style and civilization,it is necessary to actively carry out the renovation and protection of residential style,update the functions of the village’s public cultural space,and continue to improve the intangible cultural heritage protection system,strengthen cultural heritage protection,with a view to Create a traditional cultural atmosphere in the village;in terms of industrial prosperity,we must pay attention to the development of characteristic industries,and promote protection through development.It is possible to promote the development of village agricultural industries through innovative development models,and at the same time rely on the economic value of village features to develop rural tourism and cultural and creative industries,thereby providing continuous financial guarantee for the protection of features;in terms of effective governance,it is clear that people are the features of the village.The core strength of protection work is the key to rural revitalization.By reconstructing the dominant position of style protection,strengthening the sense of ownership of the villagers,doing a good job in the leading role of Xinxiang sages,giving grass-roots management organizations a certain right to speak,and stimulating the endogenous power of style protection.At the same time,it is necessary to strengthen the construction of the talent team for the protection of landscapes,and gather the forces of the whole society to participate in the practice of landscape protection,so as to finally achieve the goal of revitalizing and prosperous life in the countryside and effectively inherit and continue the landscapes of the villages for a long time. |
