Study On The Setting Elements Of Chinese Urban Classical Gardens From The Perspective Of Heritage Conservation

The attention of the heritage community to the setting of cultural heritage can be traced back to the “Venice Charter”(1964).However,until “Xi’an Declaration”was issued in 2005,the concept of setting began to have a clear definition.It has been 15 years since then.But the specific connotation of the setting,how to determine the scope and content,how to protect and so on Relevant research is still insufficient.Therefore,the purpose of this paper is to study the content of setting elements and the principles,processes and methods of identifying them before carrying out specific protection operations on the setting of cultural heritage,so as to provide the basis for the formulation of future protection programs.There are many kinds of cultural heritages.In this paper,the identity of the elements of heritage setting is discussed by using the ontological particularity and environmental complexity of urban classical garden,a cultural landscape heritage.First of all,through sorting out the documents related to the background environment,we extract the important reference documents,such as the “Bala Charter”,“ Hui’an Protocols”,and “ Principle for the Conservation of Heritage Sites in China”.After analyzing its specific connotation,it is found that it is a part of the heritage in essence.It should be valued and protected as a witness of history and a carrier of cultural heritage value with the heritage itself.After clarifying the relationship between the setting and cultural heritage,we should grasp the bearing and promoting relationship between the setting and heritage value,and take the heritage value evaluation as an important part of identifying the setting mechanism to distinguish it from a wide range of heritage environment.Next,it summarizes the characteristics of urban classical garden and the general relationship between the cultural heritage and the setting,and then develops ideas for specific case analysis.From the perspective of the development process of urban classical garden,its prosperity and decline are closely related to urban economy,culture and social life.From the definition of urban classical garden,being in the city is the biggest difference between urban classical garden and other suburban and mountain gardens.It is found that urban classical garden generally does not have the function of economic production,the overall construction density is large,it is controlled by urban planning and contributes to the maturity of Chinese garden conception.From the perspective of the interior of urban classical gardens,there are also internal diversities due to the differences of garden functions,identity of garden owners and regional environment.Based on the previous research,four common ways of connection between urban classical garden and its setting are explored: survival,garden design,urban planning and cultural connotation.With sufficient theoretical support,we use the method of early summary to collect and sort out the data,investigate and analyze,evaluate the value of the specific case-Yanhua pool and its environment,and identify and analyze the setting factors.Pay close attention to the historical and cultural background of Gehua pool as a post station,yamen garden,Confucian temple and ancestral temple.Based on the current situation of the elements of heritage and environment,excavate the value of heritage.With the relationship between value and carrier,promote the identification of six background environmental elements layer by layer.In view of the deficiencies of Yanhua Pool and its background environmental elements in current protection,this paper puts forward suggestions,and finally draws relevant enlightenment.
