First,acity’sregionalcharacteristicsorlocalculturalheritageareitssymbol,itsidentity.Inamountainousarea,toomanyunconventional,super-futuristicbuildingswillnotbecompatiblewiththecity’slandscapes.Withouttheselandscapes,itisjustanothersocalledmoderncitycomposedofconcreteandsteel.TakeBeijingforexample.Inthepastfewyears,Beijinghasbeenremovingalargenumberofsuchalleystraditionallycalledhutong,inordertomakeitbecomearealinternationalcity.ButwithoutthesehutongscanthiscitystillbecalledBeijing,anancientcapital?
Thedisappearanceofhutongsmeansthedisappearanceofaperiodofhistory,acordiallifestyle,andeventhedisappearanceofBeijingitself.ThenBeijingwillloseitsuniqueness.
