Abstract:
Traditional villages are the genetic library of traditional Chinese culture, embodying the production, life, and disaster-prevention wisdom of our ancestors. Against the backdrop of frequent extreme weather today, they hold significant value for both scientific research and practical guidance in rural planning and construction. This article takes a traditional Chinese village-Nanchangtan Village in Zhongwei City, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region-as a case study. From a ‘macro-meso-micro' perspective, it explores everything from the ‘site selection pattern for disaster isolation' to the ‘flexible spatial layout for disaster adaptability', and then to the ‘redundant construction techniques for disaster resistance'. It deeply explains Nanchangtan Village's disaster-resilient system and the disaster-prevention core that has allowed the village to survive to this day. In the end, it summarizes a disaster prevention and mitigation concept that couples nature and culture through ‘human-land harmony' and ‘adapting to local conditions', offering new ideas and approaches to enhancing disaster resilience in today's beautiful countryside.
