THE Daming Palace Ruins Region will open to the public on October 1,2010 when renovations are completed. It is expected to brighten that quarter of the city for local inhabitants, and become a spectacle unique to this ancient yet modem city. Preservation of the Daming Palace Ruins has been listed as one of UBPA (Urban Best Practices Area) at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo. "The project exemplifies a new way of thinking, prompting us to reconsider the strategic development of major ruins regions," Giora Solar, a member of the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS), affirms, citing the role of the project as a fresh and new direction, commenting, "The Darning Palace preservation project is hoped to become an international model for the preservation of cultural heritage."
