The flavor of the year is strong, and the market is booming. The ancient Spring Festival paved a profound cultural heritage for the economy at the beginning of the year.
Year of Humanities in China:
The industry continues to contextualize.
During this Spring Festival holiday, visitors have walked into Pingjiang Road in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, which has a history of more than 2,500 years, to feel the spring of the ancient city and experience the national style of the New Year.

The life tension of traditional culture is in practice.

When culture infiltrates the economy, traditional New Year's customs have more sustenance, and New Year's customs are constantly brewing.

Confident Chinese Year:
The New Year breeds hope.

Exceeded 7 billion! On February 16, the box office of the 2024 Spring Festival stalls came again with good news.

Benefiting the people with culture and culture. While cultural consumption creates economic benefits during the Spring Festival, the most important thing is to enrich people's spiritual world.
Thousands of miles to Quanzhou, in addition to wanting to experience hairpins, but also want to understand the profound cultural connotation of the city, but also for the resumption of work after the festival to relax the spirit. Zhu Linxuan, a tourist from Wuhan, chose to go to the ancient city of Quanzhou for the New Year and enjoy a "slow" holiday.
Cultural prosperity and economic prosperity are the true portrayal of Quanzhou - it is a city of humanity with 22 world heritage sites and 44 national key cultural relics protection units, as well as a prosperous city with a GDP of more than one trillion yuan and nine industrial clusters of 100 billion yuan.

In-depth excavation of local cultural heritage resources and traditional folk customs, Quanzhou will strive to reproduce the prosperous scenery of Quanzhou in the Song and Yuan dynasties by holding folk activities such as the Intangible Cultural Heritage New Year Goods Festival and the Lantern Festival. At the same time, it has also launched measures to benefit the people, such as the issuance of cultural and tourism consumption vouchers and discount reductions, so that people can have a sense of gain and happiness, and better meet people's yearning for a 'World Heritage City'. Lv Xiujia, director of the Quanzhou Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism, said.
The dragon leaps and the tiger leaps, and the fish leaps over the dragon gate. Through the window of China's economy in the Spring Festival, people witness the beginning of the year in which humanity and economy complement each other, and read China's practice of "development for the people".
This Spring Festival, we feel the humanistic value of high-quality development and start the new year with confidence.
