Research of Small Valley Towns Based on Spatial Syntax Taking Xuecheng as an Example ()
ABSTRACT
Small towns are a transitional existence between traditional villages and
modern cities, and an important buffer for reconciling urban-rural binary
contradictions. At present, China has entered a period of rapid urbanization.
The state has introduced a series of policies such as urban-rural integration, urban-rural
integration, and new rural construction to promote the development of small
towns. This study selected Xuecheng Town, Li County, Aba Prefecture as the research object, and used space syntax to do research
on spatial logic. At the same time, combined with the actual public
space conditions of river valley-type small towns, the paper puts forward some
planning suggestions for optimizing the layout of public space and public
facilities in small valley towns, and provides theories and methods for its
improvement, so that the planning resources input in western Sichuan can be effectively utilized.
