The Architectural Mediation of Geoparks Museums in China: Between Tensions and Hybridization of Cultures
This chapter focuses analysis of heritage display and interpretation practices in geoparks and geopark museums in China. The Mount Taishan UGG Museum is located within the domain of Daimiao Temple. Daimiao Temple is considered to be the center of the historic city, and the beginning of the canonical ascent path to the summit of Mt Taishan. The Fangshan UGG Museum is located in the Fangshan district of Greater Beijing, about 60 km from the Beijing metropolitan area. Fangshan district was known for its production of coal and building materials. According to media reports about 70% of the coal and building materials sold on the Beijing markets came from Fangshan. Dali is located in southwest China at a cultural crossroad. The Dali Mt Cangshan UGG Museum was built in July 2014 with a view to applying for the Global Geopark label obtained in 2014. The style of architecture mixes both functionalist modernism and the regionalist genre.
