Yes, definitely. Keeping historic city centers and buildings in good shape costs a lot of money. No private company can afford to take care of these places, so it's up to the government. These places are important for culture, showing our history and old architecture. So, preserving them should be really important for everyone in the city and country.

I don't think it's only the government's job to keep old cities and buildings. Governments have to think about where to spend money, like on health or schools. They might also want to make cities more modern. Keeping old places can be important, but it's not just up to the government. Maybe local people or other groups can help too. It's about finding a balance between old and new.
