New Chinese architecture in classic style
China is still building traditional style buildings here and there among the thousands of new developments. Any more contributions or info appreciated:
Shanghai Old City add-ons    Chongqing Hongyadong Hotel   shopping street   Palace of the People or People's Assemby, built in the 1960s converted into Dalitang Jiiudian Hotel  residential:  Tianjin: Old Culture Street   Beijing Yongding Gate and City Wall rebuild   Qianmen Street rebuild, Beijing     Huaqing Palace rebuild, Xian  Tang Paradise Hotel, Xian    Nanshan Temple Park, Hainan     Qin Palace, Hengdian World Studio, Hengdian, Zhejiang    Wuxi Three Kingdoms Palace  Yuanmingyuan Palace, Zhuhai  Guilin City Twin Pagodas   Suzhou Old City      Chi Lin Nunnery, Hong Kong    Lijiang Old and New Town (much was rebuilt after the 1996 earthquake)     New Temple, Zhongdian (there are 200 monasteries being rebuilt in Tibet and thousands of temples in China after the ravages of the Cultural Revolution)  Beijing's Old Summer Palace, the worlds largest gardens -a VAST system of 40 artificial lakes each with an island palace is very controversially being rebuilt in er, Hengdian.  I would still like to see more of it though, and its a shame so much has been recently lost too... Last edited by the spliff fairy; August 22nd, 2009 at 09:51 AM. |

 That's massive. They should build some skyscrapers like this. Also I'd like to see some of those monster modern bridges covered with the aspect of traditional Chinese gates.

These are typical Shuyuanmen houses in Xi'an, they are also courtyard houses like in Beijing (Siheyuan), only that they hold 4 courtyards in one lol. |

It's a great decision. China and generally Asia, MUST preserve and develop their own architecture. I'm sad that a lot of cities are standardizing a global architecture. If the architects continue to ignore the particular aspects of each place and culture, in 100 years, you'll can go all around the world and see everywhere the same urban nature, the same urban soul.

It's a very honourable and witty architecture. I wrongly thought that China wasn't care very much about this. I'm a little bit relieved. |
