It Looks to me like the Chinese are doing something similar to what many Europeans (and noneuropeans) did as immigrants in the US in the 1800's.

Forgot about/ignored/hid their prior culture and heritage. But instead of going to the countries they dream of and trying to blend in, they are building replicas right in China.

Its like emigrating without emigrating.
