As the ultimate concern of religion effects on human through doctrine or text, that of Jiangnan landscape through its aesthetic, which comes from its poetic cultural status. From the perspective of the natural structure of Jiangnan, it has profound aesthetic potential from poetic culture; from the point of view of Jiangnan history, it has aesthetic value dug out from the vestiges of Jiangnan history. The aesthetic potential of the natural structure of Jiangnan landscape is performed as the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan landscape, the melodious sound of nature and the emotional impact from natural posture. More importantly, the aesthetic value of the Jiangnan history digs out its direction and location to the present and future through the negation of the existence of history as the completion of a rational aesthetic backwash of history. It shows the impediment of worldly fame and gain in the process of human's ultimate pursuit, but removing its burden can break the new ground in the disappearance of the little boat.From the ideal level, Jiangnan landscape brings about spiritual enlightenment and ideal concerns. The entertainment in the life of Jiangnan concerns people's yearning for an ideal life. Jiangnan people's admiration and commemoration to the heroes shows solicitude for people's vision of ideal society. The moral interpretation of the ecology of Jiangnan landscape and its correspondence to the personality calls for human's ideal personalityFrom the other side of the world's point of view, Jiangnan landscape concerns the spiritual transition from the world to the other side of the world. The mutual infiltration and integration of the ceremony of divine worship and the nature of amusing human being in the folk activities in Jiangnan as well as its wine culture and atmosphere of civil harmony lead to the blissful life in Jiangnan and the feature of Jiangnan as "the earthly paradise". Apparently, the layout of religion in Jiangnan has the unique nature of the other side of the world. Relying on the Jiangnan landscape, the building materials with southern characteristics and the comprehensive utilization of the artistic means, it stands out a sacred piece of sky and concerns human's longing for the pursuit of the other side of the world.At the same time, Jiangnan landscape concerns human beings on the existence of different forms, including that of the individual, the people and the mankind. Speaking from a personal point of view, the ultimate concern is reflected in Jiangnan landscape's favor of human's true life and its appeasement of their drifted soul. The real nature of Jiangnan landscape provides the existence of a person's life with a broad space, making him become greater, go to the infinite and blend with the nature. Jiangnan home expresses its concerns for human beings in the catering for them through the pattern of its "garden", in its pleasure of human relations of its "home" and in its affection of "returning". From a national perspective, Jiangnan landscape has pointed to the path of the Chinese nation, shaped the aggressive attitude of the Chinese nation and given her belief and ideal. From humanity's collective point of view, it deeply nourished the spirit field of the entire human through its spiritual situation created by its high mountains and rivers, through the inherent spiritual blending of heaven and earth, and through the profound mediation on the human nature the whole spiritual rapture of the human nature after a thorough understanding. Thus, Jiangnan landscape becomes the carrier of a multidimensional vector of ultimate concern..One of the major features in this paper is that it tries to explore the relationship between Jiangnan landscape and the ultimate concern from the perspective of geography. At the same time, archetypal criticism is complemented to make a detailed analysis of the meaning of its imagery, which makes the conclusion of Jiangnan landscape's ultimate concern for human beings specific and scientific.
