Abstract
Background and Aim: Traditional overseas Chinese villages in Lingnan face dual challenges of cultural preservation and economic revitalization under globalization. This study examines the cultural-tourism integration model in Wulin Village to propose a sustainable development framework.
Materials and Methods: Combining qualitative field investigations and literature analysis, the study employs Bourdieu’s theory of cultural capital and the Sustainable Livelihoods Framework to analyze interactions between heritage preservation and tourism development.
Results: The study found that Wulin traditional village has achieved a benign interaction between cultural heritage and economic development by using the interactive extension and community participation "culture and tourism +" model through excavating historical and cultural resources, promoting community participation, shaping the brand of cultural and tourism integration, and developing education and training. However, challenges such as over-commercialization and infrastructure gaps persist.
Conclusion: A balanced model integrating cultural capital theory and participatory governance is critical for sustainable revitalization.
