A Study On The Traditional Settlement And Architectural Features Of Qinhan Historical Trail In Lianzhou

With the continuous advancement of the protection of traditional settlement at the national policy level,and the gradual deepening of Guangdong Province’s understanding of the linear cultural heritage composition of South China historical trail,the research and protection of the settlements along the historical trail have been put on the agenda."Research on traditional settlements along South China historical trail " is one of the subjects of the "basic theoretical research on historical trail " and is undertaken by our team.The research on traditional settlements along Qinhan historical trail in Lianzhou is a sub-project of this project.Based on this background,this article takes the traditional settlements within 3km along the Qinhan historical trail in Lianzhou as the research object,using multidisciplinary research methods such as architecture,cultural geography,immigration,etc.Analyze the characteristics of traditional settlements and traditional architecture along the historical trail from three levels: the spatial distribution of settlements at the macro level,the spatial form at the meso level,and the architectural form at the micro level.Provides a basis for the division of architectural zoning in the area.Focusing on the four basic functions carried by the historical trail,including migration,business exchanges,military defense,and information transmission.And analyzes the formation mechanism of the settlements and architecture along the historical trail.Through the analysis of the heritage value of the traditional settlements along the historical trail,explore the activation strategy of the traditional settlements along the Qinhan historical trail in Lianzhou,and promote the revitalization of the villages along the trail.This article is mainly divided into five parts: The first part is the introduction,expounding the research background,research objects and content,clarifying the overview of previous research,and summarizing the significance of the research.The second part sorts out the route and function characteristics of the Qinhan historical trail in Lianzhou,and elaborates the natural and human environment background along the historical trail.The third part discusses the distribution law of settlement space at the macro level,and analyzes the settlement space form at the meso level,including landscape structure,plane form,street system,basic clusters and public space.The fourth part analyzes the characteristics of residential architecture and public buildings at the micro level.The fifth part combs the tangible cultural heritage and intangible cultural heritage of the traditional settlements along the Qinhan historical trail in Lianzhou,and proposes an overall activation strategy for the traditional settlements along the historical trail.Through the above analysis,the following conclusions can be drawn: 1)In terms of the spatial distribution of settlements at the macro level,because the northern and southern sections of the Qinhan historical trail in Lianzhou pass through different topography,the settlement line density in the hilly area of the northern section of the ancient road is lower than that in the basin area of the southern section.The settlements along the historical trail have the characteristics of water-tightness.The closer to the historical trail,the higher the density of settlements,the farther away from the historical trail,the lower the density of settlements.The gathering center of the settlements along the historical trail is often the location of the old post station.2)In terms of the spatial form of settlements at the meso level,the landscape structure of settlements can be divided into "agricultural-historical trail separation type" settlements and "business type-historical trail passing-through" settlements according to the type of industry.The plane form of settlements is restricted by topographical conditions,defense requirements,and business conditions,and can be divided into enclosure style,curved fan style and strip style.The clan structure plays a role in the group organization of the settlement.Usually,an ancestral hall corresponds to a clan with the same surname.The single-surname settlement adopts the multi-level organization method of "gatehouse-lane gate-household".In multi-surname settlements,different surname groups are divided by laneways.3)At the micro level,the characteristics of traditional architecture present the diversified characteristics of Xiangnan and Jiangxi immigrant cultures and local cultures.For example,the residential houses influenced by the southern Hunan culture have the characteristics of small townhouses and high windows on the facade.Influenced by the Jiangxi culture,The faade is equipped with a volcanic wall and attention to stone carving decoration.Affected by the functions of historical trail,a large number of public buildings have appeared along the historical trail that embody the functions of military defense,business exchanges,and information transmission.4)The architectural culture of this area is different from the Hakka culture.It is recommended that the architectural culture district where the Qinhan historical trail in Lianzhou are located be designated as the local dialect area.Exploring the activation path of the settlements along the Qinhan historical trail in Lianzhou is the macro-level route planning,the meso-level cluster construction,and the micro-level activation mode of individual settlements.Including the activation mode of cultural experience,the activation mode of sports events,the activation mode of agricultural experience,and the activation mode of multiple governance.
