甘肃文化

甘肃历史悠久，文化源远流长，是中华文明的发祥地之一。自古以来，甘肃就是中外经济、文化交流的重要通道之一，是中华文化与西方文化交流、融汇的热土。著名的古丝绸之路全长7 000多公里，在甘肃大地就绵延1 600多公里。广袤的陇原大地已经形成了具有甘肃地域特色的敦煌文化、丝绸之路文化、黄河和伏羲文化、民族和民间民俗文化、戏剧舞台艺术等文化品牌。彩陶文化、长城文化、石窟艺术文化等在陇原大地交相辉映，不仅成为甘肃多彩的文化，也成为中华文化和世界文化的宝贵财富。以《丝路花雨》、《大梦敦煌》、《敦煌乐舞》等为代表的优秀剧目和舞台艺术，竞相彰显着甘肃特色文化独特的内涵和大西北的风情，同时也向世人展现了悠悠中华数千年的文明传承。

为更好地保护历史文化遗产，科学合理地开发利用特色文化资源，2002年甘肃省委、省政府决定将甘肃特色文化建设纳入经济社会发展总体规划，把发展社会主义先进文化作为带动全省经济发展、推动社会和谐进步的重要战略，特色文化建设得到了前所未有的发展，全省初步构建起特色文化战略格局。建成了文溯阁《四库全书》藏书馆、省博物馆新展览大楼等一批重点文化基础设施;推出了《大梦敦煌》、《敦煌韵》等一批舞台艺术精品工程和精品剧目;形成了兰州黄河风情文化周、天水伏羲文化旅游节、平凉崆峒文化旅游节、庆阳香包民俗文化节、武威天马国际文化旅游节、甘南香巴拉旅游节等一批特色文化品牌;同世界五大洲的许多国家和地区开展了文化交流和合作;23项非物质文化遗产列入国务院公布的首批非物质文化遗产保护名录;礼县大堡子山遗址考古发掘、张家川马家塬战国墓地考古发掘入选2006年度全国十大考古新发现。概括地讲，地域性、多样性和特色性三个方面构筑了甘肃特色文化建设的骨干体系。目前，甘肃特色文化已成为经济和社会发展新的增长点。

我们相信甘肃文化事业在新时期将会更上一层楼，更有利地促进甘肃的经济和社会发展。
