On the basis the development transition of Hangzhou, this paper illustrates the industrial building resources in Hangzhou section based on the summary of practice pattern of domestic and foreign industrial heritage. It summarizes the typical kernel space feature of industrial heritage in Hangzhou section of the Grand Canal. Finally, the space reconstruction strategy of industrial heritage along the canal is proposed from the aspects of heritage patch, corridor, matrix trying to break the relatively isolated situation of the industrial heritage patches and urban matrix space.

This paper discusses conservation of heritage corridor based on a case study on historic towns along Beijing-Tianjin section of the Grand Canal. Through fieldwork in more than ten towns and districts, the author finds out that material remains in the ancient towns are very rich, diverse cultures have close relation to the canal and the natural environment is so important to the sustainable development of this area. The paper points out that the ancient remains have significant historic and cultural value and the Grand Canal implies great ecological value. It stresses on authenticity and integrity in heritage conservation and proposes the combination of heritage conservation and ecological protection.

Abstract Introduction. During WWII, the Owl Mountains were the site of a large-scale military investment codenamed Riese. This project called for the construction of underground passages using concentration camp prisoners as laborers. Material and methods. On the basis of terrain inventory, analysis was conducted of the tourism management of six military-historical complexes of Project Riese and their environs. Tourists were polled to determine how attractive they found one of these - the Rzeczka complex - as a tourist destination. Results. The results obtained in the study led to the conclusion that the complexes' infrastructure and tourist attractions meet the needs of tourist activity in the area. In the case of the municipalities where complexes are located, it was determined that they are not being adequately developed. Conclusions. At present, the Project Riese complexes are seeing the development of various forms of tourism. An important problem with the development of tourism there is the conflict between the need to protect the environment and cultural heritage and the development of commercial and recreational tourism services.

Cultural heritage textile artifacts that have been preserved only in their smaller fragmented remains represent a very interesting and complex matter, very rarely analyzed and studied individually as a separate entity. This case study covers multidisciplinary research conducted on two 18th century silk fragments with a seemingly identical pattern. Demonstrating the possibilities and challenges which arise when analyzing and interpreting incomplete cultural heritage textile materials, this study can serve as a stimulus for creating a large-scale database of historical fabrics which would allow comparison based on their differences or common characteristics. By applying only non-destructive and micro-analytical methods it has been determined that the fragments were made of the same material and using the same manufacturing techniques. It has been proven that fragments were not part of the same historical fabric, but most likely originated from different parts of the same liturgical vestment. The reverse engineering process applied to preserved fragments has resulted in a detailed technical documentation and a complete reconstruction of the lost original pattern.
