It finds that under the influence of the spatial order culture of Buddhist “mandala,” Tibetan settlements in the surrounding area of Xiba Temple are characterized by centripetal, symmetrical, and vertical distribution. They are typical representatives of Tibetan settlements built around the temple in the mountain area. The results of this paper may provide a new idea for studying the spatial pattern and spatial structure of Tibetan temple settlements and their surrounding settlements.They can also be used to guide the spatial distribution pattern of Tibetan-inhabited villages under the background of religious culture, and guide the protection, planning, and construction of cultural landscapes in traditional Tibetan settlements.展开更多
