中國通過了第一部物權(quán)法，下令對北京的幾百座四合院進行保護。然而，批評家們指出，所謂“保存”常常只是拆掉老房子，然后依照傳統(tǒng)樣式蓋一座新的來代替。馬巖松曾經(jīng)說過：“現(xiàn)在的做法就是在假造古董，這不好。胡同吸引了很多旅游者，但這里貧困的老住戶要么就像主題公園里的演員，要么就被踢出去，以便富人們可以購買這些房子。老北京的精神正在消亡�！�

　　China has passed the first property law, ordering to protect Beijing’s hundreds of courtyards. But critics say, so-called “conservation” just means knocking down an old building and replacing it with a structure in a traditional style. For this,Ma Yansong’s opinion is “The way is just to build fake antiques, it is not nice. These hutongs attract many tourists. The poor,old residents are either like actors in a theme park or they are kicked out so that the rich can buy these houses. The spirits of oldBeijing are now dying away.”
