Digital empowerment for the deep integration of culture and tourism is both an important way to develop culture and tourism in the era of digital economy and an important topic in culture and tourism research.Interpretating the connotation and theoretical connotation of the deep integration of culture and tourism,the paper further explored its basic logic and argued that the embedment of digital technology supports and promotes the digitization and the information integration of culture and tourism,thus bringing about new changes in the culture and tourism sector as well as forming a culture-tourism symbiont and new forms of digital culture and tourism.From the three dimensions of theoretical research,digital empowerment and integration practice,a research framework of digital empowerment for the deep integration of culture and tourism has been initially constructed,emphasizing the innovative application of IP theory,integration symbiosis theory,scene theory,industrial evolution theory,and system dynamics theory to explain the intrinsic logic,evolutionary process and dynamic mechanism of the culture-tourism integration as well as to consolidate further research on relevant scientific issues.The paper also proposed key scientific issues such as the grasp of key technologies of digital empowerment for the culture-tourism integration,the census and evaluation of cultural and touristic resources,the construction of culture-tourism integration scenarios,the innovation ecosystem of the integration of culture and tourism industry,the construction of national cultural parks and culture-tourism integration demonstration zones,the innovation of science and technologies,and the nurture of talents for digital culture and tourism sector,thus promoting the continuous innovation in the application practice and academic research of culture-tourism integration and better supporting the construction of Chinese path to modernization and high-quality development of culture and tourism in the new era.
