Abstract:At present, digital technology has brought extensive and profound impact on human production and life. Cultural tourism is characterized by iterative innovation of content, accelerated technological upgrade and interactive experience empowerment, and is moving toward a new stage of transformation, upgrade and high-quality development. Virtual cultural tourism deeply integrates digital technology and cultural content. Through the three space stages of retrieving cloud information, embedding immersive settings and feedbacking cloud travel experience, virtual cultural tourism provides an immersive platform and creates interactive settings for tourists to get immersive mirror image experience, and enables them to travel the world from the comfort of their homes. In virtual space, tourists realize the compression and extension of time with digital technology, reconfigure and reconstruct space and time through virtual experience, and creatively decode virtual reality with cultural participation and interaction. This not only creates a new community in the virtual space, but also removes social hierarchies and identities defining people in the real world, and thus reconstructing social relations in the virtual world. In the future, virtual cultural tourism will better meet the people's high-quality and diversified spiritual and cultural needs and integrate into the new development pattern of the digital economy era by building virtual-reality settings, creating cultural communication platforms at local and global level, establishing a mobilization-participation cultural expression mechanism, and reconfiguring a disembeding-reembedding cultural space-time relationship.
