The Main Experiences and Insights of the "Two Mountains" Practice Innovation Base in Chinese Mountainous Counties

Abstract

This study examines the experiences and insights of the "Two Mountains" practice innovation base through a review of the literature, empirical analysis, and on-site research, utilizing Qingyuan County in Lishui City, Zhejiang Province, as a case study. The study examines the interconnected relationship between green mountains and gold and silver mountains within the framework of sustainable development and takes into account the larger context of China's ecological civilization construction. It makes the claim that ecological advantages can be converted into economic advantages. The study summarizes Qingyuan County's experiences and emphasizes how the county realized that green mountains and clear waters alone make up "gold and silver mountains". The county actively looks for ways to turn ecological advantages into financial gains and has established a green industry system based on ecological tourism, industry, and agriculture. Ecological capital is created through this transformation, which makes ecological resources a vital component of the regional economy within the ecological region. The paper talks about the lessons learned and experiences that can be applied to further integrate development and protection, combine substantive operations and reform, and combine model demonstrations with experience sharing.
