These traditional cultural forms are the carriers of the message of civilisation and have played an important role in the inheritance of the message of Chinese civilisation throughout the course of history. Because of the twists and turns of history, the challenges to the development and inheritance of Chinese culture have been innumerable. However, on the whole, the preservation and development of traditional Chinese culture has been relatively effective and successful in the modern era, and with the main force of the relevant policies and measures of the Chinese government, together with the collaboration of various institutions and international forces, traditional Chinese culture is moving into the future with a classical legacy and a new look in the new era. However, in the course of the author's research and study, some improvements can still be found in the system of preserving Chinese traditional culture. Chinese patterns are one of the brightest pearls of traditional Chinese culture, which comes from ancient times and is still very much alive today. However, there are also problems in their development and conservation. Therefore, this paper will use Chinese patterns as an example to study the way in which traditional Chinese culture is passed on and preserved and discuss the problems and propose countermeasures, in the hope of inspiring improvements to the issues involved
