ABSTRACT

This article describes a quantitative analysis of new spatial perception construction methods from the perspective of tourists' perception using spatial syntax theory. This method explores the relationship between block spatial layout and perceptual practice, and is used for a detailed analysis based on tourists' visual and tactile perception, combined with historical spatial creation to generate spatial perception improvement strategies suitable for historical blocks under the current stock update background. Spatial syntax, through computer analysis and tourist simulation, can help obtain the most accurate spatial range and effective target areas for perceptual enhancement in historical districts. In this study, a detailed update method and related strategies for the construction of sustainable historical block cultural perception based on spatial syntax model were introduced. Specifically, taking a government key construction area in the Five Avenues Cultural and Historical District as an example, this study analyzes the tactile and motion perception, static visual perception, spatial use, and gathering situation of tourists in different travel situations within the area, and proposes a new perception construction strategy based on this area.
