Immovable Culture Heritage

Hongcun Village is an administrative village located in Hongcun Town, Yi County, Huangshan City, Anhui Province, China. It sits at the foot of Huangshan Mountain in southern Anhui Province. On November 30, 2000, Hongcun was inscribed on the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List. The village is known for its well-preserved historical architecture from the Ming and Qing dynasties. It features a unique water system and a distinctive layout resembling the shape of an ox, making it a representative example of traditional Huizhou residential design. With its elegant scenery and classic Hui-style architecture, Hongcun has long attracted artists from both China and abroad for photography and painting. In recent years, digital technologies have played an important role in the preservation and development of Hongcun, supporting the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities. The Unity3D virtual reality engine has been used to integrate 3D modeling and other digital tools in the development of a digital display platform for the ancient village. This approach explores new strategies for showcasing intangible cultural heritage, offering innovative perspectives for the protection, inheritance, and revitalization of traditional villages.
