Traditional villages are numerous and widely distributed,also have distinctive personalities.They are called "the pearl of traditional culture".They are not only the precious historical and cultural resources in our country,but also the testimony of human beings adapting and using natural conditions in the long history.How to maintain the sustainable development of traditional village vitality is an important issue in the context of rapid economic and social development.In the paper,taking Shanxijie Village as the research object based on the theory of human settlement environment science,sustainable development theory and sustainable development with the research methods such as literature reading,field survey,spatial syntax and summarization,the main research results are put forward as follows:(1)Study on the landscape analysis.The site selection conforms to nature and adapts to local conditions.As a traditional village that "rises due to water,rises due to river".The main landscape features were including the basically complete traditional patterns,rich space types and local customs and so on.The architectural details have high aesthetic value and most of them are well preserved.Traditional culture and folklore have been inherited to a certain extent.But some original ecology and activity and innocence of temperament were gradually fade affected by economic and social development.(2)Using the convex space analysis method and the axis analysis method of spatial syntax,the parameters such as integration degree,intelligibility and depth value are selected to quantitatively analyze the spatial pattern of Shanxjie Village from different spatial scales.The research illustrates that the Village is surrounded by a loop,and its road system is relatively clear.The width of the alley and the proportion of the buildings on both sides are appropriate,and the scale of the site is quite appropriate.The space has high integration of the main road,the ring street andits surroundings.The village is highly synergy,and the overall depth value is low.Additionally,the village is located in Dawenkou Town,which is quite easily accessible.Furthermore,the location of the site is not only relatively open,but also maintain its independence.Therefore,the protection and development of the village should focus on the protection and rectification of its unique spatial pattern,while giving more attention to the meaningful space presented in the above analysis.(3)The main problems of the current landscape are as follows: they were mainly manifested in the destruction of the overall style of some traditional buildings and the low degree of public space selection.Additionally,the landscape is poor and the infrastructures are scarce.Furthermore,the plant landscape tends to be urbanized,and traditional culture and folk customs are difficult to inherit.The driving factors of landscape changes were discussed,including urbanization and economic development,villagers’ have insufficient concepts,lack of traditional crafts and materials,and the disintegration of traditional cultural landscapes.(4)According to the analysis of the causes of the existing problems,this paper put forward the sustainable development suggestions for the protection and development of the village from the aspects of natural ecology,human settlements,historical heritage and space transformation. |
