"We pay special attention to old buildings and historical fragments, so we try our best to restore them." The project site manager of Hangzhou Xintiandi Group said that the traditional landscape area is unique in twisting paths of Shibati Old Street and its scattered and uneven architecture at the front and back. Despite the potential challenges in the future visitor movement and distribution from these features, the company still keeps the original style of Shibati Old Street.
