| The Yellow River valley is one of Chinese nation's important birthplaces, has once created the glorious bright traditional culture in this. Yellow River coast of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces as a result of its physical geography distinctive quality, in the long historic course, this area appeared many historical cities. Some old cities evolved by the ancient times settlement development come; Somewhat produces because of this land sector unique military status; Also has is emerges as a result of the Yellow River transportation. Because this area develops in the modem history process slowly, these ancient times cities and the history construct majority of all preserve until now.This article from ancient times city terrestrial reference construction obtaining, discussion ancient times city layout method.From natural spatial environment obtaining which locates to Jin Shaanxi Yellow River coast ancient cities, divides into two big kinds according to the physical geography characteristic, namely Yellow River Jin Shaanxi canyon section "two Shan Jia a Sichuan" natural spatial shape and Yellow River small north main current section wide-open natural space shape. Is situated at these two kind of geography characteristic ancient cities to display the different type the city "the natural skeleton" and the city "the terrestrial reference system".Namely the Yellow River Jin Shaanxi canyon section coast old city presents "the Guanshan Bin River" the city natural skeleton, this kind of old city terrestrial reference system performance is "link multi-spots, at the same time in one" characteristic; The Yellow River small north main current coast old city presents and "depends on the mountain" "according to the mountain" the city natural skeleton, this kind of old city terrestrial reference system performance is "a link axis, tandem" characteristic.The old city relied on respective terrestrial reference system to form has been possible to distinguish, the orienting strong city space. May divide into "the node" according to the terrestrial reference construction and the city natural space relations, "the boundary" and "the control point" the terrestrial reference.Is located the spatial node place terrestrial reference construction to present the symmetrical physique characteristic; Is in the city boundary the terrestrial reference construction usually to have the obvious line of sight relations with Yellow River between, "looked" and "looks" the interconversion; But is in the city space scope control point terrestrial reference construction the plane spool thread with "the city axis", "the river axis" or "the mountain axis" the superposition, is "the mountain - water - city" a spatial conjunction institute is at. Reflected China ancient times middle the urban construction, "urban planning - construction - landscape construction" close union design technique.At the same time, these terrestrial reference construction all conformed to in the ancient times wind hydrology "thousand feet for the potential, hundred feet is the shape" the criterion principle, built "the user friendly" city space. |
