Abstract

This study, based on the theory of cultural landscape, takes XiuRong Ancient Town in Xinzhou as an example to deeply reveal its unique historical and cultural value and rich cultural connotation through the analysis of material and non-material cultural landscape elements. Combining current issues and the contemporary context, it proposes protection strategies such as emphasizing ecological improvement, preserving the historical texture of the ancient town, restoring the scale of streets and alleys, achieving authentic architectural restoration, compiling cultural collections, and encouraging community participation. The aim is to explore the path of sustainable development for the preservation and inheritance of historical urban cultural landscapes.
