Thus, what they say is mostly wise counsel, and young people should listen to them. The nuggets of wisdom uttered by old men of the various ancient schools of thought play the same role, which have been compiled into the book series Wise Men Talking, published by Sinolingua Press.展开更多

Thus, revealing the significance of the Chinese urban planning tradition in a modern context becomes the key link. Based on the historical experience of Chinese urban planning, this paper attempts to reveal the significance of traditional Chinese urban planning in a modern context from four aspects: urban planning integrated with the natural landscape, urban humanistic and cultural space planning, urban heritage conservation and culture inheritance, and urban planning during an economically prosperous period. Traditional Chinese urban planning emphasizes the integration between city and natural landscape and is good at setting up a baseline of urban order based on the ingenuity of landscape. Moreover, Chinese urban planning focuses on the design of humanistic and cultural space structures as well as the role of urban planning in the cohesion of "the will of the people," inspiration of cultural pursuit, and historical spirit inheritance. Besides, Chinese planning tradition pays attention to the transformation of urban space through economic development and emphasizes the fundamental principle that new space should adhere to the original spatial order.展开更多
