The local station activities of the "Art Broadcasting Plan - Douyin Live Theater Troupe Special" jointly initiated by the China Performance Industry Association and Douyin Live Broadcast continued to be carried out in Shaanxi, Guizhou and other places, setting off an upsurge of local art troupes "breaking the circle" through the live broadcast room.

In November, the "Frozen Theme Park" officially opened at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort, and in December, the "Zootopia" theme park will also open at Shanghai Disneyland. The debut of a series of theme parks and good news will accelerate the development of the domestic cultural tourism park industry. Third, tourism continues to heat up in autumn and winter. The cultural and tourism departments of Jilin, Xinjiang and other places have introduced preferential policies to strengthen the supply and promotion of high-quality tourism products, and strive to accurately attract foreign tourists. **According to the data of the tourism platform, air tickets and hotels are at a low level, and the first batch of products for inter-provincial winter travel has decreased by 5% to 10% year-on-year, showing the characteristics of popularization and inclusiveness.

Young people's enthusiasm for night school was praised, and Shanghai Halloween "Demons Dance" and Internet "Human Flesh Unboxing" were criticized. Recently, the night lifestyle of young people in Shanghai and other places "finishing work and going to night school" has been on the hot search. Netizens said that the rich and diverse evening school courses effectively meet the diverse needs of young people for interest exploration and social development, and also provide a new channel for young people to continuously improve themselves. Also a new cultural phenomenon, the "Demons Dance" of Halloween in Shanghai has been widely questioned and criticized. Netizens believe that such behavior should be guided. At the same time, Bilibili reported that overseas platforms systematically instigated users to "unpack human flesh" on the UP master (uploader) on the site, which aroused strong criticism from netizens. Netizens believe that this move not only discloses the personal information of the up owner on the Internet, but also harasses him by private messages, attacks and malicious false reports, which not only breaks through the moral bottom line, but also crosses the legal red line.

New tourism measures such as the creation of "mobile landscapes" and the "advance compensation" for tourism consumer complaints have aroused praise from netizens. Recently, the transportation departments, culture and tourism departments in many places across the country have jointly created a number of "mobile scenic lines" to further promote the integration of road traffic resources and tourism resources along the route. In November, grass blanket landscapes were set up on both sides of Hebei's "No. 1 Scenic Avenue", and the design of the high-speed toll station of the North Ring Road of Sichuan Daemei Tourism was integrated into the Jiajiang New Year paintings, which aroused praise from the majority of netizens. This move effectively enriches the supply of tourism resources and better meets the diversified tourism needs of tourists for "fast forward, slow travel, and deep experience". In addition, Hainan Province uses the "Hainan Safe Travel" platform to connect with the 12345** management center to achieve 3 minutes of acceptance, 30 minutes of disposal, and 48 hours of settlement of tourism consumer complaints. At present, there are more than 100,000 honest merchants on the "Hainan Rest Assured Tour" platform, involving various industries such as food, housing, transportation, travel, shopping, and entertainment. In this regard, netizens believe that the "advance compensation" not only allows tourists to eat "peace of mind", but also buys time for properly handling tourism consumption disputes and avoids the impact of negative public opinion, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.

There are also some chaos in the tourism sector that has aroused doubts and criticism. Some netizens questioned whether the behavior of "letting tourists check out at 9 o'clock in the morning" facilitates their own business but damages the consumer experience, and is really beneficial to the long-term development of the island's tourism industry. The chaos of the snow town tour group soliciting customers and the forgery of more than 6,000 scenic spot tickets by tour guides have also aroused criticism, and netizens expect the relevant departments to continue to attack the chaos and fraud of tourism and effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers.

The "no cultural relics" exhibition and the "one-time tour" problem sparked discussions among netizens. In November, a number of "Sanxingdui" IP exhibitions landed or announced their upcoming debuts, causing controversy. Netizens believe that the clever use of digital technology in the "No Cultural Relics" exhibition can make cultural relics and cultural heritage glow with new vitality and enrich the audience's viewing experience. Some netizens also believe that the "No Cultural Relics" exhibition lacks physical objects, although it is very cool, but it is indeed suspected that technology is greater than culture and form is greater than content. In this regard, the author believes that as an innovative way of exhibition, the "No Cultural Relics" exhibition needs to grasp the balance between content and form, and more importantly, it is necessary to work the curatorial level, and truly use technology to express more advanced content, so as to better meet the spiritual and cultural needs of the audience.

For a long time, the revisit rate of tourists in most tourist attractions in China is less than 10%, and even some scenic spots are only about 1%, and "one-time tour" has become a long-term problem that scenic spots are committed to solving. In this regard, netizens believe that tourism has strong novelty, experience and other characteristics, which determines that more tourists tend to try new rather than "revisit", therefore, in order to attract tourists "two brushes" and "three brushes", it is necessary to constantly update the content of scenic spots to enhance the attractiveness of tourists. The integration of culture and tourism provides a possible direction for this. Through the continuous creation of new cultural and creative activities, immersive experience space and other diversified means, optimize the comprehensive experience services of the scenic spot, enhance the attractiveness of tourists, and strive to turn the majority of tourists from "returning guests" to "returning customers".
