Spatial distribution characteristics and influencing factors of traditional villages based on geodetector: Jiarong Tibetan in Western Sichuan, China.

Jiarong Tibetan is a regional group with distinctive regional characteristics and possess precious traditional village resources. Studying the spatial distribution and influencing factors of traditional villages is of vital significance for the protection and renewal of villages and the revitalization of cultural heritage. Nevertheless, due to the fact that the Jiarong Tibetan inhabited area has not been clearly defined for a long time, there is a lack of holistic discussion on the distribution features and driving mechanisms of traditional villages in this region. In order to fill this research gap, the paper is the first to break away from the existing county administrative divisions to define the study area. Moreover, the analysis is carried out by using the nearest neighbor index, kernel density, GoeDa and Geodetector, etc. for traditional villages at national-level and provincial-level. The results show that the spatial distribution of the traditional villages of Jiarong Tibetan is characterized by typical aggregation, with the core intensive area in Danba County and the sub-core intensive area in the central and northern parts. The results of factor detection show that the spatial distribution pattern of the traditional villages is the consequence of the synergistic effect of multiple factors, and the interaction effect is significantly enhanced. The economic level and climatic conditions play a controlling role, and population, elevation, intangible cultural heritage and rivers also have notable effects. The findings of study can offer scientific guidance and suggestions for the inheritance and development of traditional villages in Jiarong Tibetan settlement area.

Landscape Feature Extraction and Floristic Division of Traditional Villages in the Minjiang River Basin

Traditional villages reflect the integration and collision of cultures from many aspects such as culture, function and site selection, and reflect the cooperation and struggle between man and nature. They hold outstanding historical, cultural, artistic, scientific and social values, and are important carriers of national culture. As an important birthplace of civilization in the southeastern region of China, the Minjiang River Basin has profound historical and cultural accumulation. The unique, diverse and abundant traditional village resources in the basin embody the Fujian traditional culture with distinctive local characteristics. In order to accurately identify the landscape characteristics of traditional villages in the Minjiang River Basin, the research first introduces the concept of landscape gene similarity on the basis of landscape gene theory, and quantitatively evaluates the similarity of traditional village landscapes, which reduces the influence of subjective judgment in the process of landscape gene extraction, strengthens the repeatability of the conclusions, and makes the results more accurate. Secondly, based on five batches of Chinese traditional village lists, field visits and literature review, 111 national traditional villages with complete data and well preserved in Minjiang River Basin are determined as research objects. Finally, based on the dialect and folk beliefs, the cultural characteristics of the villages are judged, and the landscape characteristics of the villages are described based on the characteristics of the residential landscape. Six types of indicators that can best reflect the characteristics of village landscape are selected to construct the index system. By calculating the similarity of each traditional village landscape and combining with spatial statistical analysis, the traditional villages in Minjiang River Basin are divided into 9 landscape regions and 4 landscape sub-regions as a whole, and construct the landscape gene map of traditional villages in Minjiang River Basin. Through the calculation of the similarity between the traditional village landscape and spatial statistical analysis, the traditional villages in the Minjiang River Basin are divided into 9 landscape areas and 4 landscape sub-areas, then mapping the landscape gene map of traditional villages in Minjiang River basin. The results show that there are differences in landscape gene composition of traditional villages in different regions in Minjiang River Basin. Based on the differences of landscape gene among traditional villages in Minjiang River Basin, combined with the administrative division and landscape gene similarity, traditional villages in Minjiang River Basin can be divided into 9 landscape areas and 4 landscape subareas which include Hakka courtyard area, Shaojiang Courtyard area, Central Fujian Courtyard area, Central Fujian enclosed building area, Eastern Fujian enclosed building area, Eastern Fujian mixed area, Southern Fujian compound area and Northern Fujian compound area, Northern Fujian gabled roof courtyard area, Northern Fujian mixed roof courtyard area, Shaojiang independent courtyard area and Shaojiang combined courtyard area. The similarity of landscape genes between two adjacent landscape areas was higher than other areas. To some extent, this is due to the role and influence of natural conditions, cultural customs and social economy in different periods. Among them, the natural conditions affecting the residence form and construction of the overall arrangement of the choice of material, culture affects the residential spatial structure characteristics such as shape, function partition, the social and economic conditions determine the scale and fineness of dwellings. Any change of conditions will produce different morphological characteristics of residential buildings, major historical events are important catalysts for this transformation process, which can accelerate or slow down the entire process. In the future, the research will take the major historical events that affect human activities in the watershed as the time node, analyze the development and evolution laws of buildings in different periods, and conduct in-depth analysis and exploration of this conclusion.

Traditional (Culinary) Markets as A Tourist Village during The COVID-19 Pandemic and Post-COVID-19 Period: A Socio-Legal Study

Village tourism is one of the flagship projects and tourism development priorities of the Yogyakarta Regional Government (DIY Regional Regulation No. 1 of 2019) to optimize the potential of village resources to improve the welfare and economic independence of village communities (Law No. 6 of 2014). To optimize the policy, the DIY Government has developed a management system in the 2015–2025 Regional Tourism Development Master Plan with the facilitation of a Tourism Village Pioneer towards an Independent Tourism Village. The management includes the planning, implementation, and control of tourism village activities. This study will examine the implementation and dynamics of regulations during the COVID-19 pandemic and post-COVID-19. To explain and measure the policy, an empirical (socio-legal) study was conducted on one of the tourist villages, "Pasar Kuliner Belik Sonto" Sleman, as a sample, which had received a grant from the Ministry of Tourism in 2021 for a pilot tourism village management model. The study results concluded that the governance of tourist villages such as the Belik Sonto Gamplong I Traditional Culinary Market during the COVID-19 period did not appear optimal. It is due to the lack of conceptual standardization of institutional governance and in terms of regulations. Meanwhile, post-COVID-19, tourism village governance entering the recovery and normalization phase needs to reformulate tourism village development plans and resources towards resilient and superior tourism villages through product innovation, synergy between various parties, the government, and related regional apparatuses, collaborative variations of tourism village events, and the development of marketing systems. This governance fully adapts to various post-COVID-19 mitigation regulations by developing tourism village safety and health infrastructure.
