Why do we need to spend time to conserve heritage places? Are they really important given the present modern era we live in? We might debate why is it is significant to preserve it. Folks may argue that the past is gone and the future is where money, time and energy should be invested. However, one should not forget that heritage, be it historical sites, monuments or culture has extensive influences on and in culture and society! Heritage, whether intangible or tangible is our own history. India has hints of civilizations and traditions dating back over 5000 yrs. These heritage places are symbols of our history, which also gives us a sense of pride. Cultural heritage is a mirror of our civilizations.
Reasons why we should join hands in Heritage Preservation:
Contribute to our economic and cultural well-being-Historically antique buildings contribute to our economic and cultural well-being. When re-purposed for modern-day use, antique constructions are great incubators for innovation, entrepreneurship, and experimentation.
We preserve our great identity-Heritage spots in India are arguably the physical component of a cultural identity. The strategic locations, the lived-in architecture, and the uses of these unique construction and buildings reveal unique stories telling of how our old city can offer predictions of where it might be going. These structures add character add beauty to our city, fostering a sense of community and home, and serving as a reminder that our city’s past belongs to all of us together. We must preserve them for future genres.
Architectural elegance is good for your brain- A fairly new area of neuroscience called as Neurasthenics posits the theory that beauty in art, infrastructure and design makes us joyful and always in a good mood. The synaptic payoff is factual: scientists can track brain action when persons respond to beauty, magnificence and design. Don't you wish to feel better?
People are proud of their local antique piece and history, but don’t express how much they value a place until it’s disappearing or threatened. As it adds distinctiveness and character to an area, heritage is an ultimate in creating a ‘sense of place’ for the communal. Heritage constructions and spots add value to regeneration projects, both in terms the environmental and economic advantage of reuse over new construct and in adding charm to a precinct.
Greater social inclusion and increased community values can be attained through an emphasis on heritage matters.The heritage sites are an admirable local educational resource for people of all ages. Learning and knowing about the past history of the sites is a good way of bringing communities together all the way through a shared understanding of the antique and exceptional cultural identity heritage places give to an area.Regions, where the heritage is valued tend to be better looked after and such links help to foster citizenship and civic responsibility and contribute to everybody quality of life.
