Investigation and Research on the Protection and Renewal Status of Modern Arcade Building in Wuzhou
Wuzhou was one of the earliest cities to engage in foreign trade and commercial activities.Through the integration and collision of Chinese and Western economic cultures,it has nurtured a unique number of arcade buildings,which have witnessed Wuzhou's century long commercial prosperity in modern times.Due to their large number and scale,they are known as the"Chinese Arcade Museum".However,these buildings have gradually been abandoned in the development process of the city over the past century,leading to serious damage.Their original material functions can no longer meet the needs of modern urban development,and they face the dual challenges of protection and renewal.The paper aims to investigate and study the current status of the renovation of modern arcade buildings in Wuzhou,analyze the problems in their protection and renovation process,and propose corresponding strategic suggestions in order to better protect arcade blocks and inherit arcade culture.
