Jingzhou, a typical region of the "stacked cities" phenomenon in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, is home to multiple ancient city sites such as Yinxiang City, Jinan City, Ying City, and Jingzhou Ancient City, carrying rich historical and cultural connotations. Based on field research and documentary analysis, this study combs the historical context and existing issues of each ancient city site. Combining the concepts of cultural and tourism integration and sustainable development, it proposes targeted protection and development strategies, providing theoretical references for the overall development of the Jingzhou ancient city site cluster.
