碛口古镇在清至民国时期是晋西地区重要的商业重镇,有"水旱码头小都会"之美誉。文章运用历史地理学中的时空分布理论,对碛口古镇的历史变迁、空间格局进行研究,探讨碛口古镇兴衰背后的环境因素及地理要素与古镇空间布局的关系。认为地理环境对古镇的发展具有重要影响,今后在古镇规划过程中既应体现其历史色彩,又要与环境相协调。

The town is an important commercial center in the west of Shanxi in Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China. The reputation of a port is a small capital. The temporal and spatial distribution of historical geography theory is applied in the study of historical changes, the spatial distribution pattern of the Qikou Town and to investigate the relationship between the environmental factors behind the rise and fall of the Qikou town and geographical elements and spatial layout. It is believed that the geographical environment has an important influence on the development of the ancient town.
