Taking the case of Huzhou Digang as a case,the thesis sorts out the belief space of the three levels of the village,“family clan belief space”,“village community belief space” and “beyond the village's belief space”.The article pays attention to the changes of the belief space,and focuses on the diachronic evolution of the "Zongguan temple","Yanjiao temple" and "Zhushi temple",emphasizing the relationship among the belief space,the clan and village economy.The belief space is a common cultural form of the village,and its changes echo the development of the village.In Digang,the Wu family completed the transition from the construction of bloodline identity to the construction of geopolitical identity by intervening in the “Zongguan temple”.The Zhang family intervened in the Taoist space " Zhushi temple ",extended the spatial significance through the "supplement" and the expansion of the book,realized the sanctification of local beliefs,and reached the interaction between the local and the central.The Digang "Yanjiao temple" uses the folklore nature of the “Zongguan temple” in the adjacent space to complete the localization of Buddhism.The belief space has become an important intermediary for the clan to shape the authority and the interaction between the local and the central.The article uses Lefebvre's "space production" theory to explain the relationship between people's belief practice and cultural tradition.Use the concept of "divine space" by Iliad to understand the qualities of the belief space.In the contemporary context,village temples have set off a wave of reconstruction.Space reconstruction is not only a restoration of physical space,but also a reconstruction of the cultural tradition of the village,which has important cultural significance.
