Qijiang ancient town is a famous historical and cultural town of Sichuan province with a history of over 2000 years. Most of the buildings in this ancient town were build in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties which are build by western Sichuan style. The street buildup by those buildings were very well protected. There is an 500-meter-long ancient block, containing 5 ancient stages and temples. There are 2 well-preserved stages so far. Qijiang ancient town follow the combination characteristics of contrary space sequence and contrary space behavior, its space form layout is rigorous. The outer space, inner space, inter living space, behaviour and time space are formed orderly. Today the town's space form layout is evolved in a long history and tourism economy developed. With the development of tourism economy, the traditional space pattern has already not adapt to the modern Qijiang town’s development. What make it worse is lack of a comprehensive guide, causing the ancient town’s traditional history and culture and traditional pattern face a new dilemma. From the point of the protection of traditional space pattern and traditional culture, this thesis aimed at Qijiang ancient town’s internal space form layout analysis and research as the key point, making space configuration optimize and adjust. In order to adapt to the development of modern Qijiang town. Provides an example of small towns’ residential environment construction development in China.
