Abstract
This paper presents an in-depth study and analysis of the spatial distribution of urban landscapes in Jiangnan cities under the influence of geomorphology and extracts the characteristics to explore the construction mechanism from the perspective of spatial functionality based on the analysis of the process and content of landscape construction. The construction of cities and ponds originated from political influence, environmental constraints, and architectural techniques; the landscape pattern of the combined shape and complementary potential originated from the creation of various types of gardens in various dynasties; the complementary planning of landscape, the traffic creation of the plain and water network, and the production factors of agriculture and sanitation influenced the construction of the countryside landscape; the traditional view of feng shui, poetry and painting, the eight scenes of the city and countryside, and other humanistic intentions influenced the overall situation of the town and the landscape. This paper extracts and analyzes the spatial distribution characteristics of Jiangnan city landscape from several perspectives, and the results can clearly show the distribution of landscape features under the influence of geomorphology and can give the best layout suggestions. From the perspective of spatial variability, the main features of traditional landscape construction in Jiangnan are analyzed through three levels: the characteristics of the process of humanized landscapes evolving into natural landscapes, the comparative analysis of similarities and differences in the construction of cities and towns, and the characteristics of the system of regional landscape construction. Finally, the changes in the landscape pattern of the region under the influence of globalization are analyzed through the changing characteristics of landscape architecture.
Highlights
The Yangtze River estuary had a vast water surface, significant tidal action, and significant coastal accretion [1]. In terms of both agricultural production and flood prevention, the construction of canals and other artificial water facilities played an extremely important role in the development of the region [2]. e Jiangnan region has the geographical advantage of forming a complete study area and is a distinctive and unique research vehicle for the study of regional town systems and urban development, as well as an important research value and a good research database
Using the Jiangnan Canal and its water network as a link to connect these cities, the study aims to sketch a picture of the development of the cities in Jiangnan
E process of building any traditional settlement has taken a long history and has gradually grown into a very rich form of settlement space, and the wisdom of the ancestors of traditional settlements is indispensable in this process
Summary
The Yangtze River estuary had a vast water surface, significant tidal action, and significant coastal accretion [1] In terms of both agricultural production and flood prevention, the construction of canals and other artificial water facilities played an extremely important role in the development of the region [2]. E wisdom of traditional settlements in terms of geographical environment and time course is demonstrated by “making use of local conditions and materials” and “using wisdom more than force.”. As a result, it has a unique regional research value and precious records and has attracted strong interest and sustained attention. Facing the strong intervention influence of urbanization, how should the modern settlement landscape settle down? How to inherit the traditional local culture, how to renew the traditional village landscape, and how to change the mediocre and tasteless situation of the new village landscape today are the practical problems that must be faced in the process of renewing and developing the traditional village landscape
