To tell the history of a city is, in the end, to tell the story of its people. Because if there were no people, this city would have no history worth telling.Every metropolis has its history, take Zhengzhou for example-- from boundless farmland to densely tile-roofed houses to today's high-rise buildings, the change carries memories of generations. From life trivial to the striving goal, it is people's daily living weaves the urban prosperous.We trace the city development and selects unique urban village memories to revive the shared memories of locals and immigrants. The application of "time travel" conception connects affections between generations and the city. We follow the architecture vertical line to divide the indoor space into past, present and future three dimensions, create a closed-loop immersive experience and show visitors the nostalgic glory and look forward to a better life.The urbanization course is reflected in the streets that have disappeared with society progress and the newly built urban roads, the hollow metal design technique overlaps past and present roads and proves the urban geomorphic environment changes.
