The government is responsible for protecting a nation’s cultural identity. Some people think it is the government’s duty to ensure that new buildings are built in a traditional style. To what extent do you agree?

The face of each

city

is important because it shows the appearance of the past and the

culture

of the country's people. So governments should guide new construction to keep the nation's cultural

identity

. In

this

essay, I will mention some reasons behind

this

matter.

Although

, I like new construction, when it comes to keeping our

culture

it is crucial for me. One of the most important duties of governments is the care for cultural

identity

, which means, they must set laws until protected

culture

even if they should provide new ways to introduce their cultural

identity

to the whole world. The appearance of cities and countries is one of the signs of our

culture

and our nation's

identity

. includes public

buildings

, houses, neighbourhoods and so on. So the government should have a method of the letter for the building, improve and renovating urban

buildings

even for streets and generally the

city

map. Keeping the face of the

city

leads to keeping our

culture

,

for example

, Yazd in the south of Iran with a lot of old and historical

buildings

made many years ago even centuries ago.

Such

buildings

present our

culture

as well as our knowledge about materials and methods some of which are still a mystery.

On the other hand

, globalization and expand of communications between different countries with various cultures most of them have big conflicts together.

For instance

, Iran has an Islamic law in all sections even in the plan and architecture of their

buildings

such

as the size and shape's windows and so on, while the USA does not have any religious restrictions. The climate is

also

a factor for various construction like the material and plan of

buildings

,

in addition

, some old methods ,in fact, provide desirable conditions due to that climate even the kind of material used in the

buildings

.

For example

, in hot and dry climates like Yazd most houses are made of thatch.

Also

, use more windows. In conclusion,

although

I am in favour of modernization, I believe old

buildings

introduce our depth of

culture

and finely our

identity

. So it is a very good idea which does not to change the old areas in each

city

.
