Abstract:

The construction of geocultural village is in the ascendant, but the understanding of the concept and connotation of geological culture is still open to question. This paper mainly discusses the concept of geoculture, focusing on the interpretation and cognition of the 16-character guiding ideology of “geology as the base, culture is the soul,integration comes first, benefiting the people is the goal”. In the view of the problems in the application of geocultural village, it is emphasized that geocultural village should reflect the integration of geology and culture. The complementary and development of geocultural village and geopark is analyzed in particular, and geocultural village should focus on geoculture, dig and analyze the cultural connotation closely related to geology, protect and inherit geoculture, so as to attract tourists with cultural tourism and promote local economic development, rural revitalization and social progress. Therefore, geocultural village is not equivalent to geopark and it should have its own characteristics in the application and construction of geocultural village.

Key words: geoculture, integration of geology and culture, geocultural village, rural revitalization
