Abstract

The fossil resources of the Jehol Biota, as non-renewable natural heritage, their protection and rational development and utilization are of great significance for scientific research and local economic development. Based on the current situation of fossil resources of the Jehe Biota, this paper analyzes the contradiction between protection and tourism development, and proposes a model and strategy for coordinated development. Through measures such as establishing a fossil resource protection system, innovating tourism development models, strengthening scientific and technological support and popular science education, and improving the policy and legal system, a positive interaction between fossil resource protection and tourism development can be achieved, promoting the sustainable development of the local economy and cultural inheritance.
