China's urbanization is a subject of great interest, one that has attracted the attention of people throughout the world. Whereas a handful of studies have assessed various aspects of urbanization(urban expansion, urban transition, urban-rural relationships, the spatial changes in urban and rural areas, motivations for sustaining rural places), little is known of how to retain the indigenous character of rural areas in terms of landscape design. In this paper, the authors set out to contribute to this significant gap. They used Chengdu City and Five Golden Flowers(FGF) village in Chengdu's suburbs as case studies. A detailed description of the application of Ebenezer Howard's Garden City vision in Chengdu City was made; the Garden City vision was the key premise for FGF's ecotourism industry and successful conservation of landscapes with indigenous character. An analysis of the post-ecotourism landscape in FGF was accomplished using a typology method. Finally a set of landscape design methods for retaining indigenous character was proposed. The main conclusion of this paper was as follows: rural ecotourism can contribute to maintaining the indigenous character of rapidly urbanizing rural landscapes with the use of appropriate inheritance and renovation ways. The findings here may provide useful information for decision making by urban planners and policy-makers.展开更多

Exploring the spatial distribution and cultural features of traditional villages, and the factors that have shaped them,will help promote the protection and utilization of traditional villages in Beijing. ArcGIS spatial analysis, literature analysis, fieldwork and in-depth interviews were mainly carried out to analyze the spatial distribution and cultural features of traditional villages in Beijing and their influencing factors. The results show three main features.(1) The overall distribution of traditional villages in Beijing is random, although there are more traditional villages in the southwest and northeast and less in the southeast and northwest. Most of them are distributed along the higher piedmont plains or intermountain basins, and most of them are backed by hills and surrounded by rivers or along the ancient road.(2) There are some cultural commonalities among the traditional villages in Beijing, and nine typical traditional village cultures have been formed, including traditional residential culture, traditional folklore culture,the Great Wall garrison culture, mausoleum guarding culture, etc.(3) The formation of the spatial distribution and cultural features of traditional villages in Beijing is influenced by natural environmental factors like terrain, climate,and rivers, as well as human activities such as royal life, capital construction, ancient military defense, transportation, trade, etc. This study can provide a reference for the scientific protection and effective utilization of traditional villages in Beijing and all over the country.展开更多

文摘Tourism scenic spots serve as direct attractions for tourists and crucial drivers for the transformation and upgrading of the tourism industry,so they play an irreplaceable role in the development of the tourism sector.The quantity and grades of A-grade scenic spots are the mainstay of competition in various tourism markets,and their spatial layout is very important for the development of regional tourism.Using 11970 A-grade scenic spots in China as the research sample,and methods such as the Nearest Neighbor Index Method,Kernel Density Estimation Method,and Grid Dimension Method,the spatial distribution,typological structure,and influencing factors of A-grade tourist attractions were analyzed to identify the main natural,economic,and social factors influencing the spatiotemporal pattern of A-grade scenic spots.The results indicated that China’s A-grade scenic spots exhibit clustering characteristics in their spatial distribution.The kernel density center shows a spatial pattern of“multiple cores,with secondary cores surrounding,and a gradual decrease”.The spatial structure is fractal and complex,with significant regional differences and a notable scale-free range.The types of tourist destinations and products exhibit distinct regional features,with a higher concentration of scenic spots in the regions in South China and East China,which are characterized by favorable natural and economic conditions and convenient transportation.A-grade scenic spots are densely distributed around the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and the eastern regions such as Shanghai,Zhejiang,and Jiangsu provinces.Analyzing the spatial distribution characteristics of A-grade scenic spots in China contributes to our understanding of the complexity of scenic spot layout and spatial connections,which provides a basis for optimizing the layout of tourism development within regions,the rational allocation of resources,enhancing the quality and efficiency of the tourism industry,and promoting sustained and healthy regional economic development.It is conducive to the strategic work of tourism development and rural revitalization in China,and serves as a reference for decision-making.
