When the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu city were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage site on Saturday, the park ruins of the ancient city near Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, were finally opened to the public.
The opening came after archaeologists had toiled for decades to unveil a glimpse of ancient Chinese civilization, enlightened by the brilliance of jade.
Jiang Weidong, deputy director of the Administration of Liangzhu Archaeological Site, still has concerns about the move, though.
