The Digital Preservation and Presentation of Red Cultural Heritages in Ganjiang River Basin, China

The Ganjiang River Basin of Jiangxi province with rich resources of red culture heritage is famous for the red tourism. The purpose of this study is to investigate how to balance the preservation and presentation during the tourism development in digital times. In recent developments related to cultural tourism, the villages and towns with lesser stocks of red cultural heritages are suffering from a lack of preservation and in danger of vanishing. Apart from the form of traditional museums responsible for cultural heritage preservation, the protected model of Ganjiang River watershed in digital is one of the few alternative paths. With the promotion of an entire digital city network during the watershed area, the gap between urban and rural areas has been widened in the preservation for red cultural heritage. For rural areas, the model of an open air museum is a good choice in digital times. Based on the basin's protection practice and tourist diversity demand, upgrading interpretation systems and improving digital experiences have become the trend for red cultural heritage presentations. Effective online communication is another way to display red culture. Two models of protection and presentation for red cultural heritage have been developed.
