Abstract:
Tea gardens in Wuyishan National Park represent a crystallization of nature and human culture—drawing on the natural landscape while embodying traditional humanistic values, thus possessing significant human-ecological significance. Human ecology is a crucial dimension within Marxist ecological thought, encompassing many ecological ideas such as the unity of nature and human society and a people-centered approach. Moreover, Marxist ecological thought shares the same philosophical lineage as traditional Chinese ecological wisdom, together forming the theoretical foundation of China's ecological civilization development. This paper begins by exploring the human-ecological value of traditional tea gardens in Wuyishan, addresses issues such as the preservation of cultural heritage and the transmission of indigenous traditional culture that must be confronted in the construction and development of national parks. Through interpreting the human-ecological value of Wuyishan's traditional tea gardens, this study aims to offer reflections on culture-centered approaches to construction and sustainable development of national park.
