Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to study the spatial characteristics of urban heritage in the historical core area of Xi'an, China. The focus of the research is on the in-depth analysis of the changes in urban form in various historical stages, the functional distribution of urban heritage that remains, and the evolution of the boundaries, centres, and axes of urban space. These factors are the main elements that constitute the core of the city. Through in-depth analysis, we can clearly outline the evolution path of urban space in historical continuation and era change. This study adopts comprehensive research methods, including literature analysis, map visualisation, map overlay, and multiple research methods such as space syntax analysis. From the perspectives of functional complexity, spatial continuity, and space syntax, it comprehensively and systematically expounds and studies whether the spatial characteristics of urban heritage sites have gradually lost their core status in the process of urbanization. Such research can not only better understand and recognise the intrinsic value of urban heritage but also provide valuable experience for the sustainable development of urban heritage. The research results are of great significance to heritage protection, urban planning, and policy formulation and help to protect cultural heritage, guide urban planning, and provide substantive recommendations to policymakers.
