Developing TCM-Centered Ecology of Health Care and Maintenance Industries--With the Health Ecosystem around Mt. Qingcheng as an Example

Abstract

By giving a very good example for developing towns into the best destinations for living so as to cope with the fast aging society, this paper aims to illustrate how this can be achieved. Apart from introducing the role of TCM in integrating the limited resources and bringing about new businesses, an O2O platform that pushes the development of services and industries is also elaborated. The experience can shed light on the construction of such towns in other parts of the country. The model and the platform are new in many ways for building an ecosystem of sustainable development.
