Analysis On The Current Situation Of Rural Cemetery Construction And Ecological Planning In Jianghan Plain

At present,China is in the important stage of promoting the "rural revitalization" and "funeral reform".Take rural areas of Jianghan Plain as an example.Although the construction of rural public welfare cemeteries has improved the situation of mass burial in rural cemeteries to a certain extent,there are still some problems,such as negative space atmosphere,lack of cultural connotation,poor landscape effect,backward funeral facilities and low acceptance of ecological burial,which cannot meet people’s funeral needs and psychological needs that change with the development of the times.The construction of rural public welfare cemeteries is more prominent and representative,so the study of rural public welfare cemeteries in Jianghan Plain is particularly urgent.In different regions and cultural backgrounds,the characteristics and forms of cemeteries are different.The planning and construction of rural cemeteries cannot completely copy the construction mode of urban cemeteries,but should be constructed according to local conditions.From the perspective of landscape architecture,the study collates and collects relevant literature and materials,and uses research methods such as literature research,field investigation,case demonstration and comprehensive analysis.Due to the urgency and representativeness of the research on the construction of rural public welfare cemetery in Jianghan Plain,the rural areas in Jianghan Plain are taken as the research object.Taking Liantan village cemetery as an actual case,landscape planning and design were carried out to explore how to build a public ecological cemetery in rural areas with diverse functions,rich space,beautiful landscape and humanistic care,so as to achieve the goals of land conservation,green ecology and beautiful environment.The main research results are as follows:(1)The differences in funeral culture between China and the West are derived from the differences in people’s ideas and concepts,and such cultural differences have a direct impact on the development process of Chinese and western tombs.Although China has a long history of cemetery development,it still lags behind Western countries in the research on the theoretical system of cemetery construction.Different countries and regions have different development conditions and construction needs,so Chinese cemetery construction cannot completely imitate Western countries,especially in rural areas,cemetery construction must be tailored to local conditions.It should be highly consistent with the concept of economic and social development.Most of the construction of rural public welfare cemeteries in Jianghan Plain mainly meet the basic burial functions,ignoring the plant landscape construction,ecological functions and cultural and educational functions,and cannot form a beautiful cemetery environment.The negative space atmosphere brought by traditional cemeteries has not changed fundamentally,and villagers’ acceptance of rural public welfare cemeteries needs to be improved.(2)The planning and design of rural public welfare ecological cemetery should be combined with the current situation of the site,and the design method should be based on utilization and supplemented by transformation;Enrich the species and quantity of plants,give full play to the ecological benefits of the site,and use flowers,fruits and foliage plants suitable for the cemetery landscape to create a relaxed and peaceful space atmosphere;Integrate cultural design,such as cultural sketches,cultural walls,etc.,attach importance to humanistic care,endow the cemetery with cultural deposits;Ecological burial methods,tree burial,flower burial,lawn burial,reasonable design of personalized tombstones,in line with the requirements of sustainable development and green development of the times.(3)Based on the above problems and countermeasures,related planning and design of the cemetery in Liantan village are carried out.Through comprehensive analysis and research,landscape architecture is used to build the cemetery into a rural public welfare ecological cemetery that takes into account land saving,ecological site,sustainable development,landscape regionalization,cultural property and highlighting humanistic care.Based on the above research results,it is expected to build rural public cemetery into an ecological cemetery with positive space atmosphere,rich plant landscape,ecological burial methods and profound cultural heritage.Focusing on the construction of rural public cemetery in Jianghan Plain,it will provide new ideas and new methods for funeral reform and public cemetery construction in other rural areas.
