it is too expensive to look after and repair old building. This money should be spent on building modern building instead. to what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

It is believed by some people that preserving ancient
buildings
is more costly rather than creating modern
buildings
such
as skyscrapers. I certainly disagree with
this

can be an educational centre of history subjects for students,
thus
the students could take a lesson learned about culture and identity.
For instance
, Edinburgh is one of the popular cities which preserved a medieval building for attracting visitors to come to Scotland and earn a big money from tourism.

, some countries prefer to build new
buildings
because they want to be known as a modern city.
Firstly
, progressive architecture
