On April 22, China's first IP "Digital Landmark" co-created by the Metaverse of Culture and Tourism was officially released, pressing the fast-forward button for the Metaverse to empower the cultural and tourism industry.

Under the metaverse upsurge, digitalization has become the key to the transformation of culture and tourism, and digital collections are the focus of the cultural and tourism industry.

Under the premise of the continued downturn of travel agencies and the slow promotion of scenic spots, the digital collections of scenic spots have taken the lead in achieving profitability, even without a second.

The love and pursuit of digital collections with connotations." said Han Jingting, secretary-general of the Digital Twin Technology and Application Working Committee.

It can be seen that digital collections have gradually become a fashion, and the "Renaissance" of the digital age seems to be coming.

The cultural tourism digital collection is an important part of the cultural tourism metaverse. Nowadays, many museums and scenic spots in this industry have launched their own unique digital collections, and they are extremely popular.

These successful attempts one after another have proved that in today's post-epidemic era, the cultural tourism industry has found a feasible digital path. These digital collections can not only deepen our understanding of history and culture, but also allow us to feel the spiritual power embodied in Chinese culture that has lasted for thousands of years.

However, will the industry's successful attempts in the direction of digital collections cause museums and scenic spots to follow suit, and instead have bad effects?

For the cultural tourism industry, it is very important to seize the opportunity of product digitization, but it should not fool the public for the sake of profit, it should find IPs suitable for its own scenic spots, and be honest and innovative.

It can be said that digital collections are derivatives of scenic IP. Vivid images or scenes of cultural relics are, for scenic spots, products of image recognition, simple, distinct and attractive elements and symbols. For digital collections, it is an excellent prototype choice, which can not only empower traditional culture, but also burst out new commercial energy.
