Introduction: The following old photos are some photos taken by pilots in China in 1940, I have been to a limited number of places, where is not very clear now, I just think that now rural and urban construction planning needs more creativity, need to retain some traditional architectural culture, do not make a thousand cities, all towns and towns are the same, all rural areas are similar. Some old buildings, old houses as much as possible to repair, do not all demolish, retain regional characteristics, local characteristics, maybe one day, people will like different scenery, different towns.

Although the mountains behind are bare, the fields at the foot of the mountain are scattered with houses, and the scenery is still charming. There really isn't a need for so many buildings, there are fewer reinforced concrete forests, and there are more such bungalow courtyards.

This is a building, and the city wall, the terrain is relatively high, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the grain storage is enough, and there are a few deep wells, in the era of cold weapons, this is definitely a fortress. I don't know if this place has been preserved.

Ancient paintings do not deceive me, next to the waterfront, there is a tall tower, there are sailboats on the water, and there are houses scattered in the distance, now there are too few such scenes, now it is a boxy community, a piece of high-rise buildings, especially on both sides of the waterfront are high-rise.

How beautiful the view is, these ancient towers stand on the shore, sailboats, boats floating on the water, and scattered dwellings in the distance. You don't need high-rise buildings, it's probably the enviable idyllic life of Switzerland.

This wall is very high, it looks very solid, the whole is like a tennis racket, such an ancient castle is very practical in ancient times, and it is also a bit like a thousand-year-old falcon battleship, and the architectural design of the ancients is also worth learning.

This should be a private house, but also a large family, this fortification is very well done, in the war years, outsiders can not see the structure of this house at all. Once the gate is closed, it is very safe.

This one is even more beautiful, if you keep this environment, there are not too many high-rise buildings around, this is a perfect estate.

This boxy city is also a small city, such a city wall is very historical, can not be demolished as much as possible, the houses inside also maintain the original appearance, many tourists like these traditional tourist attractions.

If these old houses are demolished and replaced with neat houses, the scenery here will be ruined, and the history and culture will be lost. The rest is the residential property.

The buildings here are also very beautiful, and there are many open spaces, which can highlight the majesty of the buildings.
