| dc.description.abstract | The concept of ‘cultural landscape’ was proposed in the 1920’s, mainly refers to the natural scenery, buildings, factories, villages, fields, city, traffic facilities and road, and the complex cultural phenomenon of characters and costumes. As the representative of ‘the collaborative works by human and nature’, ‘cultural landscape’, which is independent of world cultural heritage and natural heritage, became a new type of the world heritage in 1992. Compared with other heritage types, the most prominent feature of cultural landscapes is to emphasize the coexistence of humanity and nature, material and non-material. Settlement cultural landscape is an important category of cultural landscape. And it epitomizes a variety of ways of interacting between human and natural environment. This article summarizes the cultural landscape characteristics of Hani settlement group in the Xishuangbanna, Yunnan province, based on the concept of ‘cultural landscapes’ and ‘cultural landscape inheritance’, the classification and standard of ‘cultural landscape inheritance’. The core feature of this cultural landscape is “vertical-distributed eco-system”, which formed by three sub-ecosystems based on forest, village and terraced field. The completeness of the forest-based ecological subsystem should be the pre-condition for the existence of all other spatial elements below. The magic woods in Hani settlement is the most sacred and strictly protected area. It reflects that Hani people believe in Animism. The scenic forest provides material resources for Hani people. Residence-based living subsystem is the main living space of Hani people. | |
