37. Educational Linkage Approach In Cultural Heritage 1.1.2.2 Tangible Cultural Heritage Dr . A. Lobovikov-Katz, Arch. – Topic 1.1. What is cultural heritage ? – Part I Slide Meeting of the modern (buildings) and the past is not always full of harmony. Often modern buildings are much larger in size then their small historic neighbours. We should not overlook even modest values of the past. A small building on the way home from school, half-hidden by huge modern buildings, might be also of a value – historical, architectural, or other... … like this building in a small street in Jerusalem, Israel, which is part of the historic neighbourhood of the 19 th century. By entering this street, one just walks into a totally different, human-size scale of the built environment of the past.
