Since then, the protection of the Liangzhu ruins has taken on a comprehensive approach, encompassing legislation, planning, construction and environmental improvement.
In July 2016, remarking on Liangzhu seeking World Heritage Site status, Xi urged that the protection of such ancient ruins be strengthened and systematic archaeological excavations be conducted to deepen the understanding of the long history and precious values of Chinese civilization.
Three years later, the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as a cultural site. From then on, it has received broader international recognition as a testimony to the existence of at least a 5,000-year-long Chinese civilization.
