KUALA LUMPUR, July 14 -- China’s Hangzhou recently launched the ‘Hangzhou Liangzhu Day’ and the first Hangzhou Liangzhu Culture Week, the exclusive festival for the ‘youngest’ (latest selected) of Hangzhou's three world heritages.
Hangzhou Municipal Government, in a statement said at the 43rd World Heritage Conference held a year ago in Baku, capital of Azerbaijan, the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City was included in the World Heritage List.
Hangzhou has decided to set July 6 as ‘Hangzhou Liangzhu Day’ and June 24 as ‘Hangzhou West Lake Day’. These two days are the dates when the two renowned sites in Hangzhou were officially included in the World Heritage List.
From the West Lake to the Grand Canal, and then to the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City, Hangzhou already has three world cultural heritages, indicating Hangzhou is an ancient city with different cultural heritages.
The three sites are all located in urban development centres. This also makes Hangzhou pay special attention to citizens' sense of participation and the symbiosis between human beings and nature in the process of comprehensive protection of the three world heritage sites.
Hangzhou has set up a ‘special zone’ model for the protection of large sites, which has maintained the integrity and authenticity of the sites to the greatest extent, including the construction of the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City Park.
In the final analysis, the protection of cultural heritage cannot be separated from the efforts of city residents. It can be seen that the protection of the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City and the West Lake has really become everyone's business in Hangzhou.
In the harmonious co-existence of human beings, nature and cities, and in the continuous protection of cultural heritage, the philosophy of the Chinese nation, its unique aesthetic taste and traditional temperament have also been continuously inherited.
