今天，無論是乘船駕艇從運(yùn)河上經(jīng)過，還是沿著運(yùn)河岸漫步，縱目四望，處處都可以看到千年古運(yùn)河所留下的橋梁、堤壩、船塢、碼頭、漕倉、貨棧、街巷、民居。每一景一物都積淀、鐫刻著歷史的滄桑、時代的變遷；每一木一石都閃映出歲月古老而厚重的光澤。

在杭州拱墅區(qū)，運(yùn)河流經(jīng)至此，為創(chuàng)意產(chǎn)業(yè)的發(fā)展提供了肥沃的文化土壤。于是，運(yùn)河天地文化創(chuàng)意園由此誕生，一路沿河，擁有包括LOFT49、創(chuàng)意產(chǎn)業(yè)園、樂福智匯園、華源創(chuàng)意工廠、浙窯、創(chuàng)意橋、建華文創(chuàng)園、A8藝術(shù)公社、富義倉園區(qū)、理想·絲聯(lián)166等10個創(chuàng)意園以及4幢樓宇。

“拱墅區(qū)與其他城區(qū)發(fā)展文化創(chuàng)意產(chǎn)業(yè)不同，拱墅區(qū)的文化創(chuàng)意產(chǎn)業(yè)園區(qū)大多在工業(yè)遺址上興建，同時與運(yùn)河旅游發(fā)展規(guī)劃密切結(jié)合，特點(diǎn)十分明晰。”該區(qū)有關(guān)負(fù)責(zé)人一語道破了“天機(jī)”。

千年運(yùn)河、曾經(jīng)依托運(yùn)河發(fā)展的老工業(yè)區(qū)、嶄新的文化創(chuàng)意產(chǎn)業(yè)，三者完美結(jié)合，在拱墅區(qū)悄然興起了一種文化現(xiàn)象—利用廢棄的舊廠房改造成文化創(chuàng)意的時尚樂園。

建成于2008年5月的理想·絲聯(lián)166，位于運(yùn)河之畔麗水路166號，前身為杭州絲綢聯(lián)合印染廠。理想·絲聯(lián)166園區(qū)建筑面積12000平方米，設(shè)有創(chuàng)意工作區(qū)、創(chuàng)意展示區(qū)、中心廣場、休閑娛樂區(qū)四大功能區(qū)。行走在金華路上，166的大牌子一眼就能看到。走進(jìn)去會發(fā)現(xiàn)，老舊的廠房隱藏在郁郁蔥蔥的綠色之后，別有一番隱逸風(fēng)味。

杭城的不少年輕人都是先知道蜜桃咖啡，才了解理想·絲聯(lián)166這個地方。作為一個亮點(diǎn)，蜜桃咖啡讓杭州的文藝青年趨之若鶩。白色基調(diào)的室內(nèi)陳設(shè)，老廠房的粗糙質(zhì)感，古典與現(xiàn)代的完美結(jié)合，再加上午后的一抹陽光，不得不說這是一個休閑放松的好去處。

在理想·絲聯(lián)166里漫步，感受最多的是輕松。上班族愛來這坐著閑聊，或許也是因?yàn)檫@里的輕松，而這樣的輕松里，也不忘帶著一份時尚創(chuàng)意的氣息。

同樣，傳統(tǒng)文化、運(yùn)河遺存、民眾互動，這三者的完美結(jié)合，也為杭州運(yùn)河的古老風(fēng)味增添了現(xiàn)代活力。

手工藝活態(tài)展示館，由民國時期通益公紗廠老廠房改建，于2011年5月開館。其最大特色是，將張小泉剪刀、王星記扇子等老底子的老技藝，從“靜態(tài)”展示變成“活態(tài)”展示，觀眾能親自參與制作過程，體驗(yàn)傳統(tǒng)文化。

為進(jìn)一步豐富非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)手工內(nèi)容，今年5月起，手工藝活態(tài)展示館閉館擴(kuò)容提升，計(jì)劃國慶節(jié)重新亮相。擴(kuò)容后，該館面積將擴(kuò)大一倍，共計(jì)3000平方米，入駐的非遺手工藝達(dá)到19項(xiàng)。除了原有的張小泉剪刀、王星記扇子、西湖綢傘等杭州老字號以及油紙傘、紫砂、皮雕、剪紙的現(xiàn)場展演內(nèi)容外，該館還將引入富陽竹紙、桑蠶技藝的生產(chǎn)制作場景，并邀請?zhí)祗每?、蛋雕、甌塑等知名的省市級非遺項(xiàng)目參加。該館還將另辟廠房歷史陳列區(qū)，展出原杭一棉老工人提供的100多件老物品、老照片，讓觀眾了解百年老廠的歷史與變遷。

杭州拱墅區(qū)無疑是運(yùn)河保護(hù)開發(fā)做得最為出色的沿岸城區(qū)，而這一點(diǎn)同樣也延續(xù)到了周邊的城鎮(zhèn)。不遠(yuǎn)處，千年佳麗地的古鎮(zhèn)塘棲，也在掀起一股運(yùn)河現(xiàn)代風(fēng)。

申遺樣板、運(yùn)河名鎮(zhèn)、國際旅游綜合體……塘棲影響日盛。其中，水北、水南、市南三大歷史街區(qū)已經(jīng)日趨成熟，江南阿二、丁哥黑魚館以及肯德基等一批知名餐飲和塘棲老字號企業(yè)紛紛入駐。

塘棲將目光延伸到水北風(fēng)情特色街以北的區(qū)域，對運(yùn)河A、B、C、D四個小島進(jìn)行綜合開發(fā)，擬建成具有國際化品牌形象的歷史文化小鎮(zhèn)、具有國際吸引力的主題體驗(yàn)型旅游產(chǎn)品的國際小鎮(zhèn)。

2012年底，一個名為“新運(yùn)河·新經(jīng)濟(jì)·新價值”的運(yùn)河經(jīng)濟(jì)帶發(fā)展高峰論壇在杭州舉行。此次高峰論壇的舉行，讓杭州重新審視千年大運(yùn)河未來的發(fā)展機(jī)遇。

“杭州是大運(yùn)河燦爛的明珠，所以大運(yùn)河是杭州的母親河?！焙贾菔芯┖歼\(yùn)河（杭州段）綜合保護(hù)委員會副主任倪政剛表示，這十幾年來，運(yùn)河兩岸發(fā)生了翻天覆地的變化，運(yùn)河的產(chǎn)業(yè)從原來過去的航運(yùn)逐步的走向現(xiàn)代的服務(wù)業(yè)，包括旅游、生態(tài)的，包括其他的文化創(chuàng)意經(jīng)濟(jì)，等等。

中國大運(yùn)河申遺已經(jīng)進(jìn)入了實(shí)質(zhì)性階段，杭州的一段將在不久后的未來成為繼西湖之后又一杭州城市的新名片。如此一來，如何更好地保護(hù)和利用運(yùn)河資源，充分發(fā)揮大運(yùn)河在文化、旅游、經(jīng)濟(jì)和人居等領(lǐng)域的作用，打造獨(dú)具活力的運(yùn)河經(jīng)濟(jì)帶，助力杭州經(jīng)濟(jì)、商貿(mào)以及房地產(chǎn)開發(fā)業(yè)的發(fā)展，正成為新的課題。

談到“新”（新運(yùn)河、新經(jīng)濟(jì)、新價值），或許首先是運(yùn)河沿岸產(chǎn)業(yè)格局的“新”。古運(yùn)河經(jīng)濟(jì)帶保護(hù)開發(fā)的產(chǎn)業(yè)定位，應(yīng)當(dāng)是傳統(tǒng)商貿(mào)業(yè)與現(xiàn)代服務(wù)業(yè)的有機(jī)結(jié)合，其具體的產(chǎn)業(yè)方向應(yīng)該是形成多元、復(fù)雜的綜合產(chǎn)業(yè)體系。其次是經(jīng)濟(jì)格局的“新”。不能僅僅停留在“航運(yùn)的河”，而是要向“文化的河”轉(zhuǎn)變。

相信在“新”的推動下，中國大運(yùn)河杭州段將展示出更加璀璨的文化。

Renaissance of Grand Canal in Hangzhou

By Li Zi

Today， the Hangzhou section of the Grand Canal of China looks rejuvenated no matter whether you take a boat tour on the canal or take a stroll along the canal. What has been left over from the glory and glamour of the Grand Canal are still there： bridges， levees， docks， piers， barns， warehouses， streets and lanes， residential houses. Gongshu District of Hangzhou is a typical area which once prospered thanks to its geographical advantages created by the canal. Nowadays， the old canal zone is ten creative cultural sites such as LOFT49， the Creative Industrial Park， Lefu Smart Zone， Huayuan Creative Factory， Zhejiang Kiln， Fuyi Granary Zone， Silk Works 166. Also on the canal are four high-rise modern buildings.

Unlike cultural businesses in other districts of the city， the above-mentioned cultural businesses in Gongshu District are located in the old factories which used to flank the Canal. The blueprints for these cultural businesses were developed in conjuncture with the blueprints of local tourism. With these blueprints， Gongshu District has turned quite a few factory houses into incubators of creative ideas， art， and fashion.

Aspiration-Silk Work166 is situated at 166 Lishui Road on the Grand Canal. The site used to house a large silk dyeing business. In 2005， the factory workshops， which measure 1，2000 square meters of built-up area， were turned into four sections： work， display， entertainment and a central square. What makes the zone stands out is a big logo and many trees left over from the past. For many young people in Hangzhou， it is Peach Cafe in Aspiration-Silk Work166 that allured them first to the new site. Featured in white and a feeling of industrial house lost in history， youngsters love to hang out there， enjoying afternoon sunshine and a cup of coffee.

Also located in the area are some museums which highlight traditional culture and ancient canal-centered lifestyle. Handicrafts in Action， a museum situated in the previous workshops of a yarn-spinning factory， was founded in May 2011. The major crafts on display are Zhang Xiaoquan scissors and Wang Xing Ji paper fans， two traditional handicrafts of Hangzhou. Visitors can see the best products and they can view how craftsmen make scissors and fans on the spot. The museum also provides a hands-on experience. In May， 2013， the museum closed its door for an expansion project. The project is slated to conclude in October， 2013. It will expand to 3，000 square meters and 19 kinds of handicrafts， which are also intangible cultural heritages， will be exhibited. Masters will be there to demonstrate the traditional procedures and techniques. One section of the museum exhibits about 100 photographs highlighting the life and work of the Hangzhou First Cotton Textile Factory.

Tangxi， a canal zone in a northern suburb of Hangzhou， is now experiencing a renaissance as as a canal town. In association with the application campaign for acquiring a world heritage status and with international tourism featuring canal features， Tangxi now presents three historical streets. A few domestic and international restaurant chains have gravitated toward Tangxi. Tangxi is going to develope four isles to attract international tourists.

At the end of 2012， a development forum was held in Hangzhou， featuring the theme “New Canal， New Economy， New Value”. It examined development opportunities for the millennium-old canal district in Hangzhou， with a focus on economic potentiality in the canal zone and regional economic growth in the next decade.

Thanks to the development over the past 10 plus years， the canal is no longer shipping centered. It is now home to a modern tertiary industry specialized in tourism， ecology and creative cultural businesses.

The development strategy for the canal-zone is the latest urban development phase of Hangzhou： The past two development phases have been around the West Lake and across Qiantang River.

At present， the application for acquiring a world heritage status for the Grand Canal of China is at a substantial stage. It can be imagined that granted the status， the Hangzhou section of the Grand Canal will be another call card of Hangzhou. For the development planners of the city， how to better protect and utilize the resources of the Grand Canal， how to give full play to the role the Grand Canal plays in culture， tourism， economy and human residence， will be a tough task. The city planners are now considering ways to integrate the canal into the city's future.
