Cultural heritage is the essential compound of the nation. Preserving its tangible and<br />

intangible legacy bounds all generations, together, creating the unique essence and spirit of<br />

every nation. In its own terms, keeping authentic nature of every culture preserves the<br />

diversity of the world, and the ability of every human being to learn from the other nations<br />

and cultures. In the context of globalization and rapid development of mass tourism the<br />

preservation of historical sites and building, in our opinion, plays one of the most important<br />

roles. What it will be the value of the street?<br />

What to do?<br />

Preserving architectonic buildings with the further reconstruction and repairing is one of the<br />

most important elements of preservation of one’s culture and staying connected to the<br />

identity of one’s nation. The idea of reconstruction of historical buildings has been discussed<br />

by a huge amount of researchers, from historians to archeologists since the creation of the<br />

first major reconstruction project at Colonial Williamsburg in 1926 (Holland, 2011). Cities<br />

have always experienced many changes during their history. Historic urban quarters have a<br />

special place in the city’s history because of their cultural, historical and architectural value.<br />

They reflect the history of the city’s culture and indigenous culture with their unique forms<br />

and patterns (Kneafsey, 1999).<br />

At first glance, the idea of restoring according to old style may appear anti-modernist, but<br />

the idea of this research paper is to explain the concept of using founds from tourism for<br />

reconstruction of old buildings, that make part of our memories. That’s why we believe in<br />

the concept idea about the creation of a Wine Street. It will be like a mix between the<br />

present and the past; it will be like a modern heritage.<br />

Nowadays more and more people are talking about the branding concept related to a<br />

particular place; therefore, architecture could be integrated into the conceptualization of a<br />

branded city, or in particular, a branded street. Stern measures should be developed to<br />

enhance the appearance of the street, which can aim at having tourist attraction sites, and<br />

also by making the street beautiful and a place to admire even by the community (Colyvas,<br />

2011).<br />

The government administrators should also ensure that individuals working in various places<br />

around the street are given guidelines that can help govern how they present themselves,<br />

as they are supposed to dress modesty and serve their clients professionally, which will also<br />

change the appearance of the street even if there is no much improvement done on the<br />

building (Huang et al, 2012). With this action in mind we could keep the memory of the<br />

place and cultural costumes, and on the other side, attract more tourists.<br />

The various building in the street should also be renovated, and made to look more<br />

pleasing, which can make the community as well as tourists from other countries admire the<br />

street. The attraction will also lead to more tourists visiting the country, which will lead to<br />

adopting the same strategy in improving their streets by government administrators from<br />

other countries (Zhang and Hu, 2010). All buildings should also undergo a critical<br />

deterioration audit in order to get the actual cost of their restoration in terms of expertise,<br />

manpower and materials. The process would involve removal of some buildings and<br />
