什么樣的建筑，才算真正屬于一座城市？一個(gè)在北京生活了近二十年的日本建筑師，會(huì )給出怎樣的答案？從白塔寺胡同到揚州歷史街區，他如何在不同城市中，把傳統與現代“溫柔地”連接起來(lái)？

這一次，比利時(shí)主持人彭望龍走進(jìn)白塔寺胡同，帶著(zhù)好奇，也帶著(zhù)疑問(wèn)，與日本建筑師青山周平，展開(kāi)一次關(guān)于城市建筑改造的深度對話(huà)。

青山周平說(shuō)，他設計建筑從來(lái)不是簡(jiǎn)單地設計外形，而是設計人與人、人與自然、人與城市之間的關(guān)系。他用灰磚搭建空間，也用鏡面映出城市節奏；他讓老房子重新呼吸，也讓人間煙火氣在街巷中慢慢地交融與生長(cháng)。

當中國城市不斷變化，我們該如何留住歷史記憶繼續前行？建筑真的能改變城市的未來(lái)嗎？答案或許就藏在這些空間里，藏在他對城市生長(cháng)二十年的思考中。

What kind of architecture can truly represent a city? Japanese architect Shuhei Aoyama, who has been living in Beijing for nearly 20 years, has his answer. From Baitasi Hutong to Yangzhou's historical streets, he gently bridges tradition and modern life. For Aoyama, architecture isn't just about shapes—it's about people, nature, and the city itself.

Joined by Belgian host Romuald Bronchart, the two explore how old buildings can revive again, and how design can quietly reshape the future of Chinese cities.
