The Study On The Landscape Sequence Of Mt. Emei Interest Area

In rapid social development today,some people wrongly equate "tradition" with the past. They regard traditional culture as a kind of things which have taken shape and pay more attention to new cultural development, neglecting inheriting traditional culture. Actually, the traditional culture doesn't only mean a fixed concept, but also a kind of human creation that courses a irreversible succession, from the past through the present to the future. The landscape spots of famous mounts in Chinese are important parts of traditional culture system. They, which are well designed to be form free, poetic sightseeing or pilgrimage place, integrates the artificial and natural beauty perfectly, by laying out architecture and refining on landscape with artificial scenery accomplishments. The technique of space shaping and sequence organization is still of guidance and reference to modern landscape design nowadays.There are achievements of protection and research of scenic and historic interest areas in abundance which are acquired by planning, architecture historiography and landscape circles. Regarding the status quo, the discourses which focus on systemic, macrocosmic and multi-dimensional theory and practice of landscape sequences research by integrating mountains as a geographic characteristic with religion culture is relatively in short still. Therefore, I try to approach the task by studying the landscape spot of Mt.Emei.History always tell how things go. Therefore, landscape sequences research of the landscape spot of Mt.Emei should be started with historical variance. In chapter two, I straighten up the evolvement and current layout of Mt.Emei Interest Area as base for the latter by analysis the culture and history which influenced the variance.There is predominant natural circumstance in Mt.Emei. Natural landscape sequence, which integrates vegetation distribution sequence with weather landscape sequence, visualizes the philosophy of"Time is a sort of durative order". The artificial landscape such as temple architecture syncretize the natural landscape organically and form the whole integrated landscape system of Mt.Emei together. The architecture space sequence is presented to be in series scenery which is like a perfect rhythm composed by the sightseeing route, guiding tourist to experience the dynamic space. These are the contents in chapter three and four.The highest aesthetics on traditional sightseeing design and admiration in China is not shaping a single piece of scene, but pursuing"artistic conception". By researching the way to experience artistic conception of Mt.Emei Interest Area, chapter five analysis the pilgrimage sequence directed by the Buddhism. I try to comprehend the conception of this sequence, by passing through Baoguo temple at the bottom of the mount to Huazang temple on the top of it, to appreciate the Zen of"Mount as Buddha". And finally, I unscramble the technique of refining the atmosphere of the interest area.Chapter six summarize the organization principle and characteristic of architectural space and landscape sequence, and bring out some inner reflection and revelation of landscape design and protected development of modern interest area on some related aspect. It also point out the significance of probing into the landscape sequence organization of the landscape spots of famous mounts.
