Abstract: As a kind of green infrastructure, scenic corridors of multiple functions have been increasingly valued and widely used in the construction of beautiful countryside in recent years. However, current researches lack an objective and comprehensive identification system for scenic corridors. This research puts forward the concept of common scenery, redefines the rural landscape from the three dimensions of spatial pattern, spatial quality and spatial versatility, and integrates it into the existing scenic corridor identification system, to form a comprehensive identification system of rural scenic corridors that take space visual evaluation, comprehensive quality evaluation of landscape space, recreational attraction evaluation and potential ecological evaluation as the first-level indicators, and 13 second-level indicators such as landscape space diversity, settlement style, transportation accessibility and potential ecological corridors. Meanwhile, citing Heishan of Liaoning Province as an example, the paper objectively identifies the potential of existing roads for scenic corridor construction and makes preliminary planning, on the basis of protecting the rural natural base, which can provide some theoretical reference for scenic corridor identification and planning in the same type of areas.
