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 can fill the vacancy in the Neolithic urban archaeological site of the World Heritages Site List in East Asia and provide unique evidence for the history of civilization in China for more than 5,000 years.

作为5000年前中国长江下游环太湖地区的一个区域性早期国家的权力与信仰中心所在，良渚古城遗址真实、完整地保存至今，可实证距今5000年前中国长江流域史前社会稻作农业发展的高度成就，填补《世界遗产名录》中东亚地区新石器时代考古遗址的空缺，为中国5000年文明史提供独特的见证。
