“…The paper uses a macro perspective and quantitative analysis to present a data-based analysis of traditional villages in Hebei Province by presenting a study of 206 traditional villages in Hebei Province [44], analysing their spatial distribution and the mechanisms that influence it [19]. The evolution of the spatial distribution of traditional villages is found to follow a clear pattern of aggregation in different periods [48], from the Pre-Qin to the Song-Liao-Jin, forming a concentrated core area of Shijiazhuang, Zhangjiakou and Xingtai-Handan. In the Yuan-Ming Qing period, this pattern continued to expand outwards.…”

Traditional villages are a valuable cultural asset that occupy an important position in Chinese traditional culture. This study focuses on 206 traditional villages in Hebei Province and aims to explore their spatial distribution characteristics and influencing factors using ArcGIS spatial analysis. The analysis shows that traditional villages in Hebei Province were distributed in clusters during different historical periods, and eventually formed three core clusters in Shijiazhuang, Zhangjiakou and Xingtai-Handan after different historical periods. Moreover, the overall distribution of traditional villages in Hebei Province is very uneven, with clear regional differences, and most of them are concentrated in the eastern foothills of the Taihang Mountains. To identify the factors influencing traditional villages, natural environmental factors, socio-economic factors, and historical and cultural factors are considered. The study finds that socio-economic and natural environmental factors alternate in the spatial distribution of traditional villages in Hebei Province. The influence of the interaction of these factors increases significantly, and socio-economic factors have a stronger influence on the spatial distribution. Specifically, the spatial distribution of traditional villages in Hebei Province is influenced by natural environmental factors, while socio-economic factors act as drivers of spatial distribution. Historical and cultural factors act as catalysts of spatial distribution, and policy directions are external forces of spatial distribution. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the spatial distribution characteristics and influencing factors of traditional villages in Hebei Province, which can be used to develop effective strategies for rural revitalisation in China.

“…Currently, research on the spatial configuration of traditional villages is primarily approached from two perspectives: geography and architecture [4]. Geographical research mainly focuses on the spatial characteristics and influencing factors of traditional villages [6], village hollowing [7], and morphological evolution [8]. Some scholars have used quantitative spatial morphology indices for rural settlements to analyze the spatial morphological evolution of Tunpu villages, offering new insights into the renewal and preservation of such settlements [9].…”

“…Although there has been some research on the impact of village morphology on spatial distribution and structural layout [5,6], there is relatively limited research on the relevant aspects of settlement spatial morphological evolution from a dynamic transportation perspective. Firstly, in academia, there has been an emphasis on studies constrained to specific time periods or transportation routes, with relatively few detailed examinations of the impact of external transportation changes on the developmental and evolutionary relationships of villages at larger temporal and spatial scales [17].…”

Traditional villages are China's cultural heritage resources; they carry rich historical and cultural information and have important historical significance and cultural value. Studying their spatial forms can suggest new ideas for the protection of traditional villages. The spatial configuration of traditional villages is shaped by a complex interplay of natural geography, socio-economic factors, transportation infrastructure, and essential facilities. Various developmental scenarios lead to diverse spatial development patterns, each demonstrating unique dynamic characteristics throughout its evolution. This article focuses on the exploration of the spatial morphology of Jiuguan Village, located along the Jingxing Ancient Post Road. By using kernel density analysis, space syntax, spatial form index, and so on, the spatial form of Jiuguan Village was studied from three aspects: public facilities clustering degree, road system, and spatial form index. Through a hierarchical approach involving points, lines, and planes, our study unveils the multifaceted influence of transportation factors on the village's historical development and its dynamic adaptive attributes within the context of traditional village spatial morphology. The results indicated that the location advantage of traffic is the driving force behind land expansion. Secondly, the areas with high traffic accessibility tend to be public spaces in villages. Third, the change in the transportation market will lead to a change in village land use functions. Finally, the renewal of transportation modes will change the spatial scale of the village. This research offers a deeper comprehension of the historical context surrounding traditional villages and provides a scientifically guided framework for heritage preservation and sustainable village development.

“…In Western research on the quantitative analysis of village forms, the predominant methodologies include numerical analysis, Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and spatial syntax analysis. Studies are largely focused on analyzing residents' health conditions [27,28], the development of village economies [29,30], and the research on village spatial forms and distribution [31][32][33][34][35][36]. In the past decade, Chinese scholars have emphasized the use of quantitative analysis methods to investigate the spatial form characteristics, classification, spatial distribution, and causation of traditional villages.…”

This research comprehensively analyzes the spatial morphology of 177 traditional villages within Linxia Hui Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province. The study delineates these characteristics utilizing a combination of five quantitative measured indices—ratio, boundary, saturation, building density, and dispersion coefficients. Leveraging sophisticated analytical techniques facilitated by “SPSS + GIS” integration, the investigation systematically explores the intricate details of village spatial form. Their overarching distribution patterns, and the determinant factors influencing them, provide insights across both granular and broad-scale dimensions. The aim is to establish a robust quantitative data analysis framework, facilitating a precise description of traditional villages’ spatial dynamics. The findings categorize the spatial morphology of Linxia’s traditional villages into three distinct types: linear multi-point concentration, dense clustering, and irregular dispersion. Common traits among these categories include widespread dispersal, small settlements, and a mix of dwellings. Spatial distribution patterns vary, with dense clusters forming an “olive-shaped” trend in the southeast–northwest direction, while irregularly dispersed villages develop along mountains and valleys, exhibiting multi-core structures. Additionally, linear multi-point concentrated villages display a random, multi-point distribution interspersed with dense clusters. The survival strategies of these commercial, subsistence, and resource-based villages are shaped by a confluence of factors such as elevation, river proximity, ancient road networks, and the interplay between Han Chinese and Tibetan cultural influences. The implications of this study are significant for understanding traditional village dynamics, promoting sustainable development, and refining quantitative methods for rural studies.
