Characteristics of ancient buildings in Jiangmen

1. Lingnan's unique "arcade" building. In the old city of Jiangmen, such as Chang 'an Road Pedestrian Street and Li Anping Road, it is well preserved.

2. In Kaiping City, watchtowers are distributed in urban and rural areas. There are more than a dozen watchtowers in a village, and there are at least 23. From Shuikou to Lily, from Tangkou to Qi Gang and Chishui, it's dozens of kilometers across, which is spectacular. This kind of building complex is large in scale, diverse and unique in shape, and distributed in the rural areas of Kaiping City. Featuring houses combining Chinese and western styles, there are many styles such as ancient Greece, ancient Rome and Islam.

On June 28th, 2007, the project of "Kaiping Diaolou and Ancient Villages" applying for World Heritage was approved at New Zealand 3 1 World Heritage Conference. This is also the first world cultural heritage project in Guangdong. So far, China's world heritage has increased to 35, ranking third.
