The City

The fairly-well preserved ruins of the royal cities of the ancient kingdom of Koguryo, together with imperial tombs and nobles’ tombs all bear witnesses testifying the existence of a lost civilization. Archaeological findings include the remains of three cities used as capitals where 14 mausoleums of kings of different dynasties and 26 tombs of the royal family members stand to this day. With the exception of the Wunu Mountain city lying outside Ji'an in nearby Huanren County, the other two cities, Wandu mountain city and Guonei city, together with all the mausoleums and tombs are all located within Ji'an City, Jilin Province. The present paper attempts to carry on a comprehensive yet profound analysis on the development strategies as an overall tourism program in order to display the great advantages and potentials to turn the site into a tourist attraction while attaching great importance to a detailed analysis of the disadvantages including a warning of treat facing the historical relics worthy of the name of a world cultural heritage site. Development strategies are put forth as to the steps in the orientation for the establishment of Koguryo as a great scenic spot with historic and cultural significance. Promotional programs are also offered which include improvement on the city image of the whole area of Ji'an, together with the uplifting of its urban infrastructure especially its traffic amenities, namely, a whole road network leading in all directions. Suggestions are also put forward to set up a whole chain of tourist products linking with the construction of the cultural relics as well as cooperation programs for regional development.

Kalay, Thomas Kvan & Janice Af- fleck (Eds.): New Heritage. New Media and Cultural Heritage.På en konference om Digital Heritage i Cypern i efteråret 2008 kunne man under en kulturel udflugt til den udgravede oldtidsby Pafos (World Cultural Heritage Site) besigtige nogle af Middelhavsområdets fineste gulvmosaikker i rester af rigmandsvillaer fra det 2.-5. århundrede f.Kr.; mosaikkerne af marmor og sten gengav scener og motiver fra den græske mytologi, ord og fantasi omsat til faste billeder, en formidling til levende brug og agtelse af noget både identitetsmæssigt og æstetisk betydningsfuldt for mennesker. Den (tyskfødte) græske guide fortalte (på engelsk) turdeltagerne ikke blot om de mageløse mosaikkers materiale og bevaring, men genfortalte også de afbildede mytologiske historier; entusiastisk, stolt og beretteglad formidlede han de gamle billeder tilbage til nutidige levende ord. Nogle deltagere fotograferede imens på livet løs med deres digitalkameraer til senere fremkaldelse og zoomende gensyn på skærme og power-point og i papirprint, medens andre købte turistbøger med tegnede gengivelser og farvefotos. Historiske klenodier har gennemløbet og rummer mange formidlingsformer. Og så er det jo – med støvvarmen og den lette brise fra havet, som dengang - først det visuelle iindtryk af de rigtige mosaikker der sætter sig fast, dernæst er det begejstringen i guidens levende ord man husker, og så til sidst de digitale fotos - selv nok så fokuserede og styringsmulige. Er det sådan oplevelses-, erindrings- og forståelsesrækkefølgen er?
