伏羲文化与天水旅游

Fuxi Culture and Tourism in Tianshui

伏羲文化是一种人为的社会现象。有关伏羲的神话传说、科学研究、文学艺术、建筑雕塑、民情风俗以及象征伏羲智慧和才能的八卦太极图等都是伏羲文化的重要内容。伏羲文化是天水旅游的资源优势,是天水发展旅游业的重要凭据;而对伏羲文化的向往,是旅游者游览天水的主要动机之一。如何利用伏羲文化吸引旅游者,是天水发展旅游业的重要课题。 这里,仅对伏羲文化与天水旅游的相关性作一初步研讨,借以求教于海内外学界同仁;并对天水如何利用伏羲文化发展旅游业提出建议,希望引起天水市政府和旅游管理部门的兴趣。

This article is an academic paper delivered at the First Symposium on Fuxi culture held in October, 1992. The article holds that the reason why Fuxi culture is closely related with Tianshui's tourism is that Tianshui is the birthplace of Fuxi culture and also a scenic spot. The 'descendants of the dragon' both at home and abroad often come to Tianshui to seek their roots and offer sacrifices to their ancestors. A great number of archaeological finds unearthed in Tianshui bear striking resemblance to the period that Fuxi culture existed. What is more, Tianshui is a city of long history, numerous cultural relics and of great appeal to the tourists.Finally, the article offers some suggestions Concerning how to take advantage of Fuxi culture in developing Tianshui's tourism. Some of the suggestions have already been adopted and put into practice.
