Recently, the "Dongyu Industrial Heritage Park" located on Dongyu Island in Wenzhou City was officially opened to the public. This park, which combines historical culture with modern industrial technology, not only shows the long industrial history of Wenzhou, but also provides important inspiration for the transformation of traditional industries.

Dongyu Power Plant was built in 1958 and was named after the factory was built on the base of Dongyu Mountain. It was later stopped in 2007 due to "high energy consumption and heavy pollution" and was listed as a first-level industrial heritage in our city for protection in 2018. In May 2020, the municipal government clearly stated that the Municipal Industry and Energy Group would be the main body of the organic renewal project of Dongyu Power Plant.

The park retains a large number of original industrial building frameworks and structures, combining former factory workshops, chimneys, conveyor belts and other industrial elements with modern landscape design. Through restoration and reuse, these former industrial sites have been given new functions and have become a good place for citizens to relax, sightsee and learn about industrial history.

Dongyu Industrial Heritage Park is not only a tribute to the past industrial glory, but also a microcosm of the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. Wenzhou has always been known as the "manufacturing capital" and has experienced the evolution from traditional handicrafts to modern industrialization. However, with the adjustment of industrial structure and the increase of environmental pressure, many traditional factories in Wenzhou are facing the challenge of transformation.

The construction idea of the park provides a new direction for the upgrading of traditional industries. By preserving and inheriting industrial culture and transforming industrial relics into tourism and cultural creative resources, Wenzhou has not only achieved a perfect combination of history and modernity, but also explored a new development model for the reuse of industrial sites. Dongyu Industrial Heritage Park has attracted a large number of tourists and investors with its unique style and also brought new economic growth points to the local area.

It is worth mentioning that Dongyu Industrial Heritage Park did not stop at a simple cultural revival, but integrated smart technology into it. The industrial exhibition hall in the park uses virtual reality (VR) technology to allow visitors to experience the past industrial production process in a digital way. In addition, the intelligent guide system and interactive exhibition equipment allow visitors to feel the charm of industrial relics more intuitively.

Through intelligent means, Dongyu Industrial Heritage Park not only provides tourists with a new experience, but also provides an example for the digital transformation of traditional industries. The success of this model provides a reference for Wenzhou and other traditional industrial cities in realizing the integration of culture and technology.

The successful implementation of Dongyu Industrial Heritage Park not only provides a model for Wenzhou's urban renewal, but also provides inspiration for the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. With the continuous deepening of industrial transformation, the redevelopment and utilization of traditional industrial sites will become an important topic for future urban development. Through the Dongyu Industrial Heritage Park project, Wenzhou not only demonstrated the achievements of industrial heritage protection, but also demonstrated its huge potential in the innovative economy.

In the future, Wenzhou is expected to take this project as an opportunity to further promote the protection and reuse of industrial heritage and inject new vitality and impetus into urban development. At the same time, this model will also provide useful experience for more regions and help traditional industrial cities innovate and transform in the new era. The light of Wenzhou will continue to shine on Dongyu Island.
