| Ancient capital cultural space is the spatial carrier of ancient capital culture,which is different from the general historical and cultural space and is the spatial manifestation of Chinese imperial civilization.The study of cultural space of ancient capitals helps to continue the historical lineage and national roots,show the spirit,temperament and appearance of the ancient capital of the Chinese nation,and plays an important role in shaping the national historical image,promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,and enhancing the national cultural soft power and international influence.From the Xia,Shang and Zhou Dynasties to the Northern Song Dynasty,Luoyang has been the capital of the country and its accompanying capital for many times,making it one of the cities with the largest number of capital dynasties in China’s history.The paper firstly compares the urban history and spatial construction history of Luoyang,and clarifies the urban development,spatial pattern characteristics and the construction of important cultural spaces in each period.The paper also extracts the wisdom of the ancient capital of Luoyang in three aspects,namely,the selection of the city site by combining the mountain and river terrain,the construction of the city by giving shape to the situation and the management of the city in one move.Secondly,based on the research results of history and culture,we apply the research method of genealogy to sort out and analyze the connotation and value of the ancient capital culture of Luoyang,and condense the four themes of the ancient capital culture of Luoyang: the model of Chinese imperial civilization,the source of Confucianism,Taoism and Buddhism,the center of the Grand Canal of Sui and Tang Dynasty and the eastern starting point of the Silk Road,and the long-term cultural center of ancient China.We identify the corresponding types of ancient capital cultural spaces: capital site space,ideological and religious space,commercial and industrial space,and cultural and artistic space,and sort out the composition of these four types of cultural spaces and study their distribution characteristics,so as to build a genealogy of ancient capital cultural space in Luoyang.In terms of the unique scope of each type of cultural space,the capital site space is distributed in a group,the ideological and religious space is distributed in a scattered pattern,the commercial and industrial space is mainly distributed within the Sui-Tang Luoyang City site,and the cultural and artistic space is mainly secondary space.On the basis of the spatial spectrum of ancient capital culture,a spatial evaluation model is constructed to evaluate the ancient capital culture space of Luoyang.The spatial distribution of the ancient capital culture was evaluated by the hierarchical analysis method,and it was concluded that the space of the capital city ruins could best reveal the ancient capital culture,followed by the space of ideology and religion and the space of commerce and industry,and the space of culture and art had the weakest spatial distribution.In terms of geography,the old city has the most dense distribution of ancient capital culture space,and the per capita possession of ancient capital culture space in Jianxi District and Mengjin District is lower than that of Luoyang City as a whole;using the index analysis method for evaluating tourism development potential,it is concluded that the tourism development potential values of seven municipal districts in Luoyang City are,in descending order,old city,Xigong District,Chanhe Hui District,Luolong District,Jianxi District,Yanshui District and Mengjin District.The evaluation of tourism development potential is carried out for different spatial types,and the development potential values of various ancient capital cultural spaces in different regions are obtained:among the spaces of capital city ruins,Xigong District has the highest tourism development potential;among the spaces of ideology and religion,Old Town has the highest tourism development potential;among the spaces of commerce and industry,Old Town has the highest development potential;among the spaces of culture and art,Xigong District has the highest tourism development potential.The existing problems of the cultural space of the ancient capital of Luoyang are summarized: lack of systematic planning in display and utilization,unbalanced spatial distribution,and lack of vitality of the non-heritage cultural space.Finally,the concept and strategy of optimizing the cultural space of the ancient capital of Luoyang are proposed.From the macroscopic,mesoscopic and microscopic viewpoints,the strategic research is carried out in three aspects,namely,optimizing the pattern of the cultural space of the ancient capital,refining the development process of the cultural space of the ancient capital and revitalizing the field of the cultural space of the ancient capital,to explore the new layout mode of the cultural space of the ancient capital of Luoyang under the modern lifestyle. |
