Intangible through tangible actions. For an integrated management of a UNESCO cultural landscape.

Understanding the inherent values of a cultural landscape, such as those designated as UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscapes, also involves an appreciation of their intangible dimensions, shaped by the social component. In order to strengthen dialogue among people and enhance comprehension of the values underpinning a particular cultural heritage, two UNESCO cultural landscapes in Italy and China were selected as case studies due to the twinning of their managing bodies. Therefore, aiming to contribute to the promotion of cultural exchange in the realm of strategies and actions for their effective integrated management, a preliminary pilot project is proposed in this article. This project seeks to conceptualize an ideal bridge of light between the two mentioned traditional rural landscapes through an artistic exhibition designed to facilitate a dialogue between the values and attributes of these two rural worlds.
