Since the reform and opening up,the economic development is fast in Guangzhou,and the expansion of urban space is very obvious. Some traditional villages areexperiencing unprecedented process of village. Many of the ancient village originallylocated in marginal urban areas, they changed passively from the city to the outlyingregions to the area around the city and they eventually becomed part of the built uparea.During this process, some ancient villages completely annihilated in the cities ofmodernization. Some villages suffer from "village in city" problems and they are facingdemolition, reconstruction or renovation of fate. However, Guangzhou is the city withthe representation of Lingnan culture,.In the process of building it emphasis on thedevelopment of their local cultural heritage.

It both are rich in traditionalsettlement culture, but also contains a part of the city culture.Firstly, With examine conditions on the ground of public space in Xiaozhou Villageand the accumulation of relevant research data, we find that Xiaozhou Village indifferent periods,and its the dominant factor about change affecting in public space arenot the same. In order to guide its activities and the activities of the villagers have beenchanges in the way and ultimately its public space property will change accordingly.Secondly, I refer to the ancient village of evaluation methods and evaluation of urbanpublic space. with its own characteristics and public space usage analysis, I set upXiaozhou Village status evaluation of public space.Again, according to evaluation,Ievaluate their status public space From the features and characteristics, tourist facilitiesand folk culture in three areas and make the same type of space relative evaluation. I getthe overall evaluating results of public space and analyze the existing problems.Finally,Ipropose the updating objectives, principles and ideas about Xiaozhou Village andformulate the overall layout of its public space.
