During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, rural museums in Zhejiang province became a new place for people to punch in. It is reported that Zhejiang will build 1,000 rural museums in five years, and the construction of rural museums will also be included in the “top ten people’s livelihood” in 2022.
Rural museums have promoted rural tourism. The construction of good rural museums is conducive to protecting the roots of rural culture. But in practice, we should also pay attention to grasp the direction. Previously, some grass-roots areas in the promotion of rural cultural facilities in such a scene: built with vigour and vitality, bustling to open, deserted, silent to close. The future sustainable development of rural museums is attracting attention.
Rural museums should take root in the countryside. These museums should not only serve the tourists, but also the villagers and enrich their spiritual and cultural life. In this way, rural museums can have endogenous impetus, and only on this basis can they further serve rural development. Therefore, rural museums should not only pay attention to the hardware construction but ignore the software supporting construction, and should not only pay attention to the superficial “lofty”, bright and ignore the deep excavation of the roots of local rural culture, ignoring the practicality of rural museums.
Rural museums should not only be built well, but also should be managed well. Therefore, we should pay attention to the long-term operation of rural museums. In this regard, it is advisable to explore multiple transportation management modes such as towns and villages, encourage grassroots to explore ways to combine with cultural tourism industry, and explore and innovate research experience, so that they can play a more positive role.
All localities really pay attention to it, settle down, do a good job in the construction of rural museums, and pay equal attention to quantity and quality. I believe that rural museums can truly become an important starting point to help rural revitalization and improve rural cultural living standards.
