“…As of February 2024, China has announced six batches of national traditional village protection lists, with 8155 villages now included in China’s Traditional village Catalog, forming the world’s largest and most complete protection group of agrarian civilization heritage [ 2 ]. China, having the highest number of TVs globally, sees these villages as a unique cultural landscape, rich and diverse in resources, and broadly distributed in space, recording the temporal process of human-nature interaction and bearing the local rural culture and historical memory [ 3 , 4 ]. However, with the rapid advancement and intense impact of urbanization, industrialization, and modernization worldwide, rural decline is increasingly becoming a global issue [ 5 ].…”

Currently, research on traditional villages mainly focuses on the current development status and evolutionary trends in specific regions, with relatively limited studies from a macroscopic and holistic perspective on the spatiotemporal evolution of traditional villages. Therefore, this study selects traditional villages in the Yellow River Basin (YRB) as the research object. By analyzing the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics and driving factors of traditional villages (TVs) in the basin, it aims to further promote high-quality development in the YRB and protect traditional cultural resources. Based on data from 892 village points of the first to sixth batches of TVs in the YRB, ArcGIS 10.8 spatial analysis techniques were employed to analyze the overall spatial pattern of TVs in the YRB. The results indicate: (1) In the basin, TVs are more numerous in the east than the west and more in the south than the north, forming clusters and contiguous distributions, with dense areas primarily in the upstream regions dominated by Qinghai Province and the midstream areas along the Shanxi-Shaanxi coast. (2) The number and scale of TVs in the basin generally exhibit an increasing trend, with imbalanced provincial distribution. More recent years show a more balanced distribution of villages and proportions, with a higher number of villages in the mountainous and plateau regions of the basin. (3) The layout center of TVs within the basin evolves with each batch, showing a migration pattern from north to south, back to north, and finally east to west. (4) The interaction of natural and social factors plays a synergistic role in driving the spatiotemporal distribution pattern of TVs. Among these, natural geographical factors are the primary factors. TVs are more commonly found in regions with low altitude sunny slopes, mild climate, abundant precipitation, proximity to ancient roads and rivers, gentle slopes, and soil predominantly comprising loess, brown earth, and alluvial soils. The cultural environment is a secondary factor, with TVs often located in areas with larger populations, developed economies, and rich cultural heritage.

Traditional villages have received widespread attention from all walks of life based on important carriers of Chinese rural culture. The mutual superposition of natural and cultural factors may exacerbate the evolution of traditional village geographical patterns. To understand such relationships and effects, factors and degrees influencing traditional villages need to be determined. Here, we analysed the data of 724 traditional villages in Guizhou recognised by relevant national ministries and commissions in China using average nearest neighbour analysis, Tyson polygon analysis, nuclear density analysis and Geodector. The geographic pattern feature revealed that traditional villages, in general, are highly clustered regionally and have significant edge effects on administrative units. Different substrate environments result in significant spatial heterogeneity in village spatial density, clustering, surface undulation, sun exposure, and waterfront. The geographic pattern of traditional villages is mostly affected by the closest distance to river valleys, the types and number of intangible cultural heritage resources in the county, river gorge density, edge effect index, degree of county ethnic language use, and proportion of paddy fields to the regional area; and their combined effects influence and control the community structure. The results highlight the impact of nature and culture on the distribution of traditional villages, which helps traditional village conservation and scientific exploration of human-land relationship issues in the mountainous areas of Southwest China.

Public spaces in traditional villages are the root of the development, preservation, and inheritance of rural cultural heritage. However, these spaces in tourism-oriented traditional villages continue to suffer from issues such as inconsistent vitality, more competition than cooperation, and inefficient revitalisation. Limited by the low precision of spatiotemporal data in rural areas, previous static and materialised vitality evaluation methods have failed to explore the dynamic nature of the flow of people in traditional village public spaces. This study investigated a collaborative active perception method using Wi-Fi probes and static snapshots to assess their dynamic vitality. An empirical study was conducted using Yantou Village in Lishui City, China, as an example. The empirical results indicate that this method can qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the spatiotemporal variations and the scenarios of the dynamic vitality of small public spaces in traditional villages, deepening the cognitive depth of their vitality from time and humanity, providing a basis for the spatiotemporal synergistic enhancement of their public spaces, and offering insights for their revitalisation.
