How to preserve the precious historical memories within a village when it is going through updating is a serious issue we must face. These memories are instantiated by some certain spatial forms and physical elements. Therefore, the preservation and continuation of the ancient villages should be based on the study, analysis and summary on their spatial form and material elements.In this paper, the author uses Yangjiagou village as the research object and attempts to explore the intrinsic spatial characteristics of the village.

Secondly, by reading literatures and researching historical, the background and factors, affecting the form of Yangjiagou ancient village space, were analyzed and summarized, so seeking internal factors space formed.
