Welcome to A GUIDE FOR LIVING IN Hangzhou HANGZHOU, CHINA International School < HANGZHOU WESTLAKE NATURE AND HISTORY COMBINED HIS members have been working through a book study of Douglas Ota’s book, Safe Passage over the last year. It provides information about students, teachers, and community members’ roles in arriving, staying, and leaving international communities. “Moving is one of life’s greatest challenges. Firmly grounded in psychologi- cal theory and cutting-edge neuroscience, Safe Passage maps the challenges and charts a course for individ- uals, schools, and accrediting bodies to navigate them. Although primarily focusing on international schools, the hopeful message within this book reaches into any school, university, or organization where human beings come and go.” We encourage you to read this book and begin the transition process before you join us in China.

Tourism professional primarily used a mass marketing approach for planning which was effective, but the city is exploring new methods to increase its international tourism. What is being proposed is the development of niche marketing based upon thematic planning. Mass marketing is from top to bottom and the proposed method is from bottom to top with the active involvement of tourism professionals. Both methods are necessary for the development a plan that has continuity. Key Words: strategic planning, thematic development, niche planning, international tourism, and planning continuity 1.0 Purpose The purpose of this study was to review the planning process used in Hangzhou, China. Hangzhou is an excellent case study because it has an urban and rural environment, excellent tourism perspective, and a progressive and aggressive tourism development philosophy. This is a case study to illustrate how niche marketing methods can be used as an input for the planning processes.

    The Evaluation and Improvement Method of Waterfront Urban Landscape, 49Th ISOCARP Congress 2013

    Zhao Ye, The Evaluation and Improvement Method of Waterfront Urban Landscape, 49th ISOCARP Congress 2013 The Evaluation and Improvement Method of Waterfront Urban Landscape: the Case of Urban Landscape Planning for West Lake in Hangzhou, China Ye ZHAO, School of Architecture and Planning, Southeast University, China Jianguo WANG, School of Architecture and Planning, Southeast University, China Abstract Urban landscape usually contains two layers of meaning: landscape and viewing, especially in waterfront zone. Traditional design focuses on landscape design which purely improve the quality of objects in static, passive way much more than noticing the initiative viewer as subject. Actually, landscape and viewing are dialectic. Interactive design using reasonable visual evaluation methods, integrated with “positive” human activity optimization as well as “passive” landscape improvement, can be helpful to enhance the quality and controllability. West Lake in Hangzhou is the famous cultural heritage in China with humanities and nature fitting each other perfectly, which also represents the model of blending natural scenery and modern city. However, it faces some urgent problems in modern urban development, the relationship between West Lake and the city has become extremely uncoordinated, as it suffered very serious “pressure” from the city. This paper takes West Lake as example, basing on lots of survey, analyzes the visual effect from every grid viewpoint on the lake (using GPS to locate), and tries to find out the both way of adjustment from the respects of viewer and landscape, and finally proposes some thinking of the design method. Being water-adjacent is one of the critical principles for ancient cities. In contemporary city, although the functional factor has gradually declined, the landscape meaning is getting greater.

    Spatial Distribution Pattern of Minshuku in the Urban Agglomeration of Yangtze River Delta

    The Frontiers of Society, Science and Technology ISSN 2616-7433 Vol. 3, Issue 1: 23-35, DOI: 10.25236/FSST.2021.030106 Spatial Distribution Pattern of Minshuku in the Urban Agglomeration of Yangtze River Delta Yuxin Chen, Yuegang Chen Shanghai University, Shanghai 200444, China Abstract: The city cluster in Yangtze River Delta is the core area of China's modernization and economic development. The industry of Bed and Breakfast (B&B) in this area is relatively developed, and the distribution and spatial pattern of Minshuku will also get much attention. Earlier literature tried more to explore the influence of individual characteristics of Minshuku (such as the design style of Minshuku, etc.) on Minshuku. However, the development of Minshuku has a cluster effect, and the distribution of domestic B&Bs is very unbalanced. Analyzing the differences in the distribution of Minshuku and their causes can help the development of the backward areas and maintain the advantages of the developed areas in the industry of Minshuku. This article finds that the distribution of Minshuku is clustered in certain areas by presenting the overall spatial distribution of Minshuku and cultural attractions in Yangtze River Delta and the respective distribution of 27 cities. For example, Minshuku in the central and eastern parts of Yangtze River Delta are more concentrated, so are the scenic spots in these areas. There are also several concentrated Minshuku areas in other parts of Yangtze River Delta, but the number is significantly less than that of the central and eastern regions.
