The Beijing Central Axis stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of China's ancient capital, showcasing a rich tapestry of national traditions and historical culture. This iconic ensemble, aptly named \"Beijing Central Axis: A Building Ensemble Exhibiting the Ideal Order of the Chinese Capital,\" was proudly inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in July.
In a recent discussion, CGTN's Tian Wei engaged with five panelists along the historic axis to explore the principles and practices of cultural heritage preservation. The conversation highlighted the importance of safeguarding such landmarks not only in China but also around the world, emphasizing the universal value of maintaining connections to our shared history.
The inclusion of the Beijing Central Axis on the UNESCO list underscores its significance as a symbol of architectural harmony and cultural continuity. As cities globally grapple with modernization, Beijing's success in preserving its central heritage offers valuable insights and inspiration for sustainable urban development.
