On how to inherit the ancient buildings in China

Architecture is the carrier of culture, and ancient architecture is the core of inheriting culture.

As the carrier of cultural spirit, the historical record of a nation's life, the habitat of human cultural soul, the temple of human cultural belief, the temple engraved with historical sites and cultural souls, the reflection of cultural forms of different regions, countries, nationalities and communities, and the representation of cultural diversity, ancient buildings have particularly important historical and cultural values, which need to be improved in practice.

China is an ancient civilization with 5,000 years of traditional architectural culture, and China has many world-class ancient buildings in different times. These traditional architectural cultures are the roots of modern urban and rural architecture in China and the roots of the Chinese nation.

In the urban and rural construction of contemporary China, a city without traditional architectural culture is a city without historical and cultural background. To inherit the traditional architectural culture of China, we must first make clear what is the national traditional architectural culture and the history and present situation of the national traditional architectural culture.
