Abstract

With its strong economy and resource endowment, southern Jiangsu has always been in a leading position in the protection and development of traditional villages. But at the same time, the rapid urbanization process has also brought a series of disadvantages to traditional villages in southern Jiangsu, such as serious hollowing, declining vitality, insufficient cultural display, and lack of sustainable development motivation. This article takes Xigang Village, a provincial traditional village in Jiangsu Province, as an example to analyze the difficulties in its protection and development. This paper puts forward strategies for improving living facilities, diversifying industries to promote economic revival, inheriting culture to shape characteristic features, and stimulating village vitality. It points out the direction for the development of Xigang Village, and also provides a model for the protection and development of traditional villages in southern Jiangsu.
