Résumé (en anglais)

As an index of the culture and society, monuments and sites are essential part of every country. From cultural point of view, countries of different cultures are idiosyncratic in terms of people’s sensitivity towards cultural heritage. In addition to the physical built form of the monuments and sites, intangible values are embedded in the deep layers of the monuments and sites. In the past, intangible values tended to be neglected by some people in the Eastern Asian countries. Such negligence has become one of the factors leading to the improper conservation or demolition of the cultural heritage. However, intangible values started to be re-appreciated in recent years in Eastern Asian countries. Scholars start to advocate that the conservation of monuments and sites based on both tangible and intangible values. Conservation of monuments and sites merely for the sake of their built form is being viewed with increasing skepticism. This paper will study the raising cultural sensitivity towards intangible values in Eastern Asian countries and a comparison between Eastern Asian and Western countries will also be made.
