Besides, just like that in the past, there still are many people with characteristic culture living here today. Therefore, the cultural consistency and diversity involved in cultural routes and their setting should be attached particular importance to in the protection, management, and development of cultural heritage so that the historical information and cultural memories can be preserved for our present and the future generation.
