Changzhou is a provincial historical and cultural city. At present, there are 3 historical and cultural blocks and 56 cultural relics protection units in the city. In the process of urbanization and urban modernization, our city will take the protection of historical and cultural cities as an important part of implementing Scientific Outlook on Development and building a harmonious society, handle the relationship between cultural relics protection and promoting urban modernization, and constantly improve the protection level of historical and cultural cities. Since the promulgation of the new "People's Republic of China (PRC) Cultural Relics Protection Law", our city has vigorously promoted the protection of historical and cultural cities in accordance with the "Changzhou Historical and Cultural City Protection Plan" approved by the provincial government and the 16-character policy of "giving priority to protection, giving priority to rescue, strengthening management and rational utilization". Taking Scientific Outlook on Development as an example to promote urban construction and cultural construction, a series of policy documents such as Opinions on Further Strengthening Cultural Relics Protection have been issued. The Protection Plan of Changzhou Historical and Cultural City (2004 ~ 2020), the 11th Five-Year Development Plan of Changzhou Cultural Relics and various special plans for cultural relics protection were compiled. The Outline of Changzhou 200 1 ~ 20 10 Cultural City Construction Plan was formulated, and it was clearly proposed to create a national historical and cultural city. After several years of construction, the development pattern of a famous cultural city has been initially formed, which combines profound cultural heritage with distinctive characteristics of the times, interacts with economic development and cultural development, and integrates traditional culture with modern civilization, reflecting the coordination and unity of scientific and technological revolution and cultural innovation.
Second, protect historical heritage and create urban characteristics.
Protecting cultural heritage means protecting history, and protecting history means creating urban characteristics. Changzhou's historical and cultural heritage, historical and cultural cities, towns, historical blocks and a large number of cultural relics protection units all contain rich culture, reflecting the historical, social and ideological changes of Changzhou city. Changzhou has a long history, rich humanities and numerous former residences of celebrities. Especially in modern Changzhou, three martyrs, Qu Qiubai, Zhang and Yun, appeared. Around this advantage, we have increased the infrastructure construction with the restoration of the former residence and relics of Sanjie as the main content, and gradually formed a series of cultural projects with Changzhou characteristics. Through various activities, pay attention to the propaganda and research of Changzhou Sanjie, and play its social education role. At present, Qu Qiubai Memorial Hall has been rated as "National Excellent Social Education Base", and Zhang's former residence has been recommended by the Provincial Education Commission and other units as the education base of China's revolution and historical tradition.
At the same time, over the past few years, the city has invested nearly 100 million yuan to relocate nearly 100 households, and successively repaired a large number of cultural relics protection units such as Xiying Liming City Wall, Huang Zhongze's former residence, Meicun Theater, Viva Theater, Changzhou Fu Xue, etc., and restored a number of cultural relics such as Tianning Temple, nearby gardens and Shuizhou Pavilion, focusing on promoting and restoring Qingguo Lane and historical and cultural blocks on the front and back coasts. It has greatly improved and optimized the cultural atmosphere and cultural landscape of our city, promoted the protection and utilization of Changzhou cultural relics resources, and added new charm to Changzhou, a modern city.
Third, tap rich heritage and enhance urban connotation.
Urban historical and cultural heritage is an important concentrated expression of urban connotation, showing unique urban folk customs and traditional cultural traces. Changzhou has a history of worshipping and valuing education. Cultural atmosphere, civilized atmosphere and literati spirit have always been the important qualities and rich connotations of this city. On the one hand, we attach great importance to the excavation of rich historical details, strengthen the restoration and protection of Tianning Temple-Qianzhouting historical and cultural blocks and historical and cultural blocks on the front and back coasts, actively carry out the general survey of intangible cultural heritage in the city, and determine the first batch of 1 1 municipal intangible cultural heritage protection pilot projects such as tin opera, Changzhou comb, needle embroidery and Changzhou Liu Qing bamboo carving. On the other hand, a number of cultural landmark projects with certain influence in the whole province and even the whole country have been built one after another, such as Asia Studios, City Library, Liu Haisu Art Museum, Xie Art Museum and China Memorial Hall, and a number of key social infrastructure projects, such as sports centers and grand theaters, are being built to comprehensively improve the level of urban civilization and the civilized quality of citizens, constantly improve the construction of cultural infrastructure in the whole city, and strive to reach the national standard of civilized cities in 20 10.
Fourth, cherish unique resources and increase the charm of the city.
Urban culture is inseparable from regional culture. Changzhou is near the river and the lake, and the ancient canal passes through the city, which is rare in the country. Changzhou, with a history of 2,500 years, is famous for its beautiful environment, and its rich natural resources and human landscape have nurtured ecological civilization handed down from generation to generation. The municipal party committee and government put forward that during the 11th Five-Year Plan period, comprehensive environmental management will be accelerated, and water purification projects, blue sky projects, quiet projects, castle peak projects and home projects focusing on dirty village management will be organized, and the strictest environmental protection system will be implemented, and four ecological forest belts and four lakeside ecological zones will be built, and 10 ecological garden towns, 20 ecological garden residential areas and 300 ecological garden units will be built. Urban per capita green area 1 1 m2 or more, urban green coverage rate is over 45%, and forest coverage rate is over 30%. By 20 10, Changzhou will become a national eco-city, a city of vitality, a city of civilization, an ecological city and a city of harmony, and a bright pearl in the Yangtze River Delta. Gaoyuxuan
