In recent years,with the acceleration of urbanization,tourism consumption upgrade,rural tourism has become a new way of life and the hot spots of tourism investment.However,the rapid development of rural tourism also led to the disorder and excessive commercialization of rural landscape.China's western region has formed a unique human settlement due to the multi-ethnic community.This character also contribute to the native landscape,which is charactered by country culture,unusual characteristics.Over the past 20 years,the rural landscape based on the tourism development model has become an important form of rural development in the western region.Tourism activities brought some changes to the local landscape.The involvement of rural communities in the tourism development process led to the most common change in land use.Besides,the changes in material landscape is bound to impact people's psychological perception at the same time,and thereby cause the changes in human's attitudes and behavior.Community residents are seen as the main body of the tourism community,thus having an understanding of the local residents'perception of the landscape changes will help better promote the healthy development of the rural tourism,which also can provide a good case for investigating the social effects of landscape changes.In this study,we selected the Shuhe town of Lijiang as a case study,and interviewed the local residents by means of participatory mapping and semi-structured interviews.A total of 300 sets of questionnaires were collected.The residents'perception were extract by qualitative analysis,and a total of 730 important sensation places,1614 landscape change perception point were collected.This paper discussed the relationship between the change of material landscape and the change of residents'perception landscape through the corresponding analysis of residents' perception of landscape changes and the changes of land use in the town before and after the tourism development.The GIS method was used to analyze the composition and change of residents' perceived landscape value before and after tourism development.Clarifying the impact of activities on residents,perception of landscape will help enrich the contents of landscape change research,provide the basis for interpreting the social problems in rural tourism development,and guide the healthy development of western tourism.The main conclusions are:(1)From the direction of residents' perception in landscape change we can see that the positive changes residents perceived accounted for 42.74%and negative changes accounted for 57.26%.The changes of residents' perceived landscape are summarizedas six categories:environmental change,land use change,living space change,economic change,traditional style change and infrastructure change,among which the proportion of environmental change and land use change is the change of environmental change is closely related to the increase of public service land.The perception of land use change,living space change and economic change are closely related to the increase of farmland in ancient towns and the increase of commercial land.In addition,the public service land and the change of living space perception also showed a certain correlation,the perception of traditional style's change and the change of building occupancy is closely linked.(2)Before and after the development of tourism,both seven kinds of perceived landscape value was summarized.The perceived landscape value of the residents is significantly influenced by tourism development.After the development of tourism,leisure and entertainment value has become the primary perception of residents,which replaced the value of ecological environment.The proportion of the economic value increased,and the proportion of labor production reduced from 10.10%to 0.In addition,after the development of tourism,the negative perception of value occured.(3)Before the tourism development,the spatial distribution of residents'perceived landscape value is more concentrated.The area of high value is formed among the areas of the Jiuding Longtan,the Longquan temple,the square street and the Qinglong bridge.The landscape value is double core spatial structure.After the tourism development the distribution of perceived landscape value become more abundant.There are two distinct high value areas in Jiuding Longtan,Longquan temple and the Sifangtingyin square.The Sifang Street and the Qinglong bridge are perceived higher overall landscape value,and the North Gate' supermarket is perceived more landscape value.(4)From the constitution of regional main landscape value,Jiuding Longtan regional landscape value has a certain degree of preservation and continuity,the area of Sifangtingyin squre affected by tourism development,their own traditional environmental adaptation value and.leisure and entertainment value perception is obviously weakened,these landscape value perception has been transferred to the newly developed North Gate' supermarket area and the Sifangtingyin square after the tourism development.
