The District was built up during the Period of Yongjia in Jin Dynasty and formed a certain scale in the Dynasties of Tang and Song, experienced a Golden Age in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The District hasn't been able to escape from the fate of demolition and reconstruction since China's Reform and Opening policy was published. Throughout urban architectural culture of contemporary China, a city loses its unique character while it is going through a modernity process. The development track of history and culture and the public identification of local culture and history have been recorded by ancient buildings, historic sites and historic districts. Regarding to the group of historic cultural architecture, it can be viewed from the perspective of architecture.
