China's Tourism Plan: 'Small but Beautiful' Formats, Homogenization Spurs Differentiation in Songyang, Yuanjia

China's Ministry of Culture and Tourism has issued the 15th Five-Year Plan for building a tourism powerhouse, calling for rational development of rural tourism resources and cultivation of 'small but beautiful' formats.

In response, Zhejiang's Songyang, Shaanxi's Yuanjia Village, and Anhui's Huashi Township are pursuing differentiated approaches, such as minimal intervention in old houses, authentic folk culture experiences, and light renovation using natural landscapes.
