Abstract. As the earliest existing large-scale grotto group in China, the Kizil Cave-Temple Complex faces new challenges under the influence of the new era's concept of preservation and heritage. Facing the current high-quality development of cultural tourism integration, digital technology is of great significance for the overall enhancement of the Kizil Cave-Temple Complex, including research, protection, and exhibition. This thesis establishes a holistic framework of digital technology, elucidates the development strategy for the Kucha Caves with the Kizil Cave-Temple Complex as a case study, and explores innovative digital technology and creative display ideas for the preservation and heritage of the Kizil Cave-Temple Complex through practical examples such as the digital research of the monumental image caves No. 47 and the upgrade of the Kizil Kucha Cave-Temple Museum.
