If they are all high-rise buildings, it will destroy the local landscape and other scenery.

Moreover, compared with neighboring Shanghai, high-rise buildings are dwarfed.

Moreover, the protection of Hangzhou West Lake is quite in place, and the height of surrounding floors is also limited.

Is to prevent the West Lake from becoming a small lake in a high-rise building and losing its original characteristics.

According to the plan, buildings more than 24 meters west of Zhonghe Elevated Road (equivalent to more than 7 floors) should be rebuilt. In order to apply for the World Heritage of West Lake, many ugly buildings were demolished. Hangzhou demolished more than 500,000 square meters of illegal buildings around the West Lake, relocated more than 2,000 households, reduced the permanent population by more than 7,000, and restored more than 800 natural landscapes/kloc-0.

In 2007, the main teaching building of the 67-meter-high lakeside campus of Zhejiang University was blasted, which became a landmark event of renovation. One of the reasons why this new building was demolished is precisely because it affected the landscape of the West Lake.

Someone once speculated: "The original site is worth an inch of land, and a higher building may be built."

"Absolutely not!" Wang Shuifa said categorically that although this piece of land in the lakeside campus of Zhejiang University does not belong to the Department of Landscape Architecture. However, the garden department has a veto power over the height of building a house here.

Before building a house, a balloon will be placed according to the future height of the house. If the height of the balloon prevents tourists from enjoying the West Lake, the house will have to come down.
