Ancient buildings refer to civil and public **** buildings with historical significance before the founding of the country, which includes buildings from the Republican period. In China, many ancient towns as well as most big cities still retain some ancient buildings.

However, nowadays, we have to look at and protect the ancient buildings and their cultural qualities with a developmental perspective, so that the ancient architectural culture can be preserved in the world and the ancient cultural heritage can produce modern values.

While some ancient buildings are very far away from now, but the culture is still worth learning from, as is the children of the Yellow Emperor, architectural culture is also a part of traditional Chinese culture, not only to develop modern architecture, but also to absorb the nutrition of ancient architecture, out of the Chinese characteristics of the road of construction, so that China's ancient culture can be inherited and continued.
