ABSTRACT

In recent years, various regions have been exploring the integration paths of intangible cultural heritage and cultural tourism. However, how to break through the predicament of intangible cultural heritage inheritance and enhance the cultural connotation of the cultural tourism industry through talent cultivation, especially the construction of a team of renowned craftsmen, remains an urgent practical issue to be addressed. Wuhu, as an important node city in the Yangtze River Delta, not only boasts abundant natural and historical cultural and tourism resources, but also has over 160 intangible cultural heritage projects, possessing a unique advantage for the integrated development of "culture and tourism + intangible cultural heritage". This research focuses on the construction of well-known craftsman training bases in the process of integrating "culture and tourism + intangible cultural heritage" industries in Wuhu City. By sorting out the current situation of cultural and tourism resources and intangible cultural heritage inheritance in Wuhu, it explores the integrated development model of culture and tourism and intangible cultural heritage, and reveals its driving mechanism for the local cultural economy. The research employs various methods such as field investigation and case analysis, and in light of the actual situation in Wuhu, proposes practical construction plans, striving to contribute to the high-quality development of the local economy in Wuhu.
