“…It is stated in the literature that numerous studies can be performed for the safeguarding of cultural heritage (Lowenthal, 2005). In parallel to this fact noted in the literature, the students think that intangible cultural heritage builds a link between the past and the future (Petronela, 2016) and it is a great responsibility of the state, society and individual to maintain this heritage. While the state is expected to develop eligible policies and support education for the safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage (Çelepi, 2016;Ott, Dagnino and Pozzi, 2015;Gürçayır -Teke, 2013;Brown, 2005) the society is expected to organize cultural festivals and families are expected to have required sensitivity for transmitting cultural values to young individuals (Abdelazim Ahmed, 2017;Mfa et al, 2013;del Barrio, Devesa and Herrero, 2012).…”

The purpose of this study is to identify the opinions of 7 th grade students at middle schools on the elements of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) and to reveal their levels of awareness on such elements. The study based on qualitative research method was carried out through qualitative research design. The study group consists of 13 students studying at a school at the city center of Bartın. Data of the study were obtained from focus group interviews held with students. The data were analyzed through content analysis method by using MAXQDA 2018 qualitative data analysis software. According to findings, it has been concluded that the students are able to correctly interpret the notion of intangible cultural heritage and distinguish it from the notion of tangible cultural heritage, that students' awareness on local cultural values is higher than national cultural values, that students have a high interest in traditional children's games, which is a significant part of the intangible cultural heritage, however those games are not adequately experienced, that the survival of national values is dependent upon their discovery by the young generation, that settlement area, sex and age are major variables on the interest in cultural values, that society in general and family and educational institutions in particular have a quite significant function in development of young individuals' awareness on the conservation of national cultural values such as cultural and religious rituals, folk songs and tales etc., that technological developments cause young individuals to be alienated from national cultural values, that the conservation of such values is highly important for the existence of nations.

“…Despite this recognition through legislation, there exist legislative deficiencies [26] and inadequate attention at the sub-national levels, which are given to viewing cultural heritage as an integral part of development, and thinking even less of sustainable development [27] (Petronela, 2015). Shen and Chen (2010) attributed the destruction of many heritage sites to the country's rapid transformation: "Resumption of private ownership, market exchange, urban development, labor mobilization, and booming tourism all became new human threats that endangered sites and objects .…”

Cultural heritage is a vital part of a society’s existence. This role has particular relevance for China, with arguably one of the largest stocks of cultural assets, tangible and intangible, in the world. Recognizing the tension between cultural preservation and economic development as a general context, this paper examines the specific additional challenges China faces in its rush towards economic development. In providing both generic and China-specific contexts, this paper has as its objective to understand how Chinese policy-makers, both central and local, attempt to resolve the contest between cultural preservation and economic development, specifically rural rejuvenation. Through two case studies—of Lijiang in Yunnan province and Rizhao in Shandong province—this paper shows contrasting strategies to leverage local intangible cultural assets. Comparing these strategies reveals both the advantages and challenges inherent in each. A successful strategy captures the benefits of cultural tourism while minimizing its costs.

Many countries of the world suffered the problem of historical neighborhoods within their urban entity, through various treatments and phases. Regardless of numerous treatments, the city in general is described as an organic entity that has past, present, and future. This past with its birth, originality, and transformation had to have relied on material and spiritual assets that surrounded it, and the urban texture that lived and continued in the peripheries of the cities during the past era is only cultural humanitarian production that interacted and was environmentally consistent and covered the human needs that were related to time and place. In this article, three international experiences were chosen from countries that are different in their geographic location and cultural heritage, and have analyzed their experiences to conserve the historical identity of cities, as follows: The first experience which is handled by the research is the experience of France in the renovation, conservation, and improvements of heritage sites. Any type of dealing on whatever level with historical areas (whether subject to maintenance, improvement or renewal) were subject and belonged to a general plan that was set based on a comprehensive view of the city as a whole, taking into account all elements that affect the problem, including economic, social, cultural and political matters. It is known that France holds advanced philosophical and theoretical heritage in the field of urban planning based on situations of the senior architects and theorists of planning in the past century. The second experience studied in this article takes place in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and presents astounding results in the field. It was renewed and was conserved by autonomous efforts by the rehabilitation of many historical cities and restoration of their vitality and spirituality to become attractive to tourism, heritage value, and investment. North America included the United State of America and Canada.
