Summary

Introduction

The old city has preserved a large number of traditional buildings dominated by Ming and Qing dwellings. Our previous governments lacked foresight, because they built new cities, demolished the Ming and Qing buildings in the ancient city, and destroyed the architectural heritage. This is the debt owed to the protection of the ancient city. Professor Ruan Yisan criticized the destruction of Anyang’s old city by name in “The Documentary of the Castle”, expressing his anxiety, indignation and helplessness over the destruction of the ancient city of Anyang. The existing old city of Anyang has chaotic functions, aging buildings, and dilapidated traditional features.
