The Liangzhu Ancient City is an early state with urban civilization in the Neolithic Age around the Lake Taihu in the lower reaches of Yangtze River. The ruins of Liangzhu Ancient City have been preserved genuinely and completely. The declaration of Liangzhu Ancient site as a world cultural heritage would fill the vacancy in the Neolithic urban archaeological site of the World Heritage Site List in East Asia and provide unique evidence for the history of civilization in China for more than 5,000 years.
