Abstract The old streets of the urban district, also the cluster of commercial and cultural activities, was often the area that was developed earlier. As the time goes by, the old streets are faced with the impacts of the environmental transition, outward migration and business recession. Few are registered as the cultural assets while most of them are supposed to be qualified. However, they can’t be called as the “cultural assets” due to the sad fact that they can’t be explained by the law. Therefore, the old streets are called the would-be cultural assets in the thesis. In the first chapter, we will study the documents to understand the current state of the would-be cultural assets and learn that they are heading for tourism. But there are no concrete agreements among them. Seeing the fact that the old streets are equal to the real cultural assets, we also recognize the domestic cultural assets share a longer history of development and grow more experienced. In the second one, we look at the dimensions of this problem, the legislation, the policy and the relevant research. We find out the management of the old streets to be the emerging issue. As the name suggests, when we study how to rehabilitate the old streets, the idea of management of the cultural assets can be applied to this case and used to construct the framework of management of Hsin-hua old streets. In Chapter Three, a thorough survey is conducted to study the natural, historical and cultural environments of Hsin-hua so as to understand the limitations and potentials. Besides, we also study all the factors that are related to the rehabilitation. All of these will be used as the draft of the management plan. In Chapter Four, we discuss the tactics of the management plan. In addition to citing the viewpoints of the domestic scholars, we also refer to the experience and fruit of other old streets. Then we analyze the advantages and disadvantages and propose the tactics. In the final chapter, we sort out the key points and draw up a practicable follow-up research. All in all, the research mainly focuses on Hsin-hua old streets. First, we study the documents to have a general understanding of it. We also discuss the practical tactics of management. Then, we refer to the tangible tactics of the successful cases to prove the feasibility and probe into the advantages and disadvantages. In the end, we propose the possible tactics.
