Abstract
The preservation concept of traditional landscapes has been widely accepted in Japan. Especially, as of 2015, there are more than 100 preservation cases districts for groups of traditional buildings. However, the outer edges of historical areas have lost their historical resources, such as heritage townscapes, and this problem has not yet been resolved in Japan. In addition, individual historical areas have problems such as excessive tourism development and, depopulation. In this study, we focused on the outer edge of a historical area in Takayama city located in, Gifu prefecture as a case study. In order to develop the area located in Takayama city as a historical landscape,, spot maintenances has been carried out since the 1980s. In addition, architectures decollated with the historical resources were built at the outer edges of the historical townscape area. We collected the spot maintenance cases in the outer edge of the traditional buildings area. We investigated their characteristics and visualized the spatial extent of changes with time. Furthermore, we investigated the use and characteristics of traditional resources in decollated architectures by conducting a field survey in Takayama city.
