长沙现存历史建筑述略

Brief Introduction of Changsha’s Historical Buildings in Existence

长沙是一座有着2000多年历史的文化名城,是第一批24座国家级历史文化名城之一,历史文化积淀深厚。但由于遭受历史上战争的破坏和后来经历大规模的城市开发建设,致使地面遗存的历史建筑数量很少,不过仍能看出长沙城的历史发展脉络。本文梳理了从长沙建城开始,一直到新中国成立之后所遗存下来的历史建筑,从中可以看出不同时代的文化特征,这些特征基本上就是一部极简的长沙建筑史。

Changsha,a well-known historical city of 2000 years,was acclaimed to be one of the 24 initial National Historical Cities for its profound cultural heritage.Having suffered from the destruction induced by wars and later massive expanded constructions of urban city,few historical buildings are remained in existence,however,roughly showing the venation of city’s development.This paper aims at making an inventory of the existing historical buildings from the original establishment period of Changsha city to the revolutionary years after the founding of the People’s Republic of China,from which it could disparately characterize cultures in different eras,thus making a brief history of buildings in Changsha.
