Abstract
The essence of rural construction is to build a healthy and orderly living ecosystem for the people living in it. The healthy village ecosystem is inseparable from the wisdom building model. The unit is a kind of space environment system. Due to the interaction of the internal elements of the system and the communication between the system and the external environment, the landscape patterns presented by the village units are different and contain different ecological wisdom. Based on this, the concept of village ecological unit is proposed from the perspective of ecology. The village ecological unit consists of three sub-units: residential landscape, production landscape and cultural landscape. The key to the wisdom of the village ecological unit landscape model is the relationship between unit structure and function. Taking Xiuri Village in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau as an example, the paper concludes the benign structure and function relationship of the Xiuri Village village ecological unit, including the production landscape construction wisdom of “farming and animal husbandry symbiosis” and “location planting”; the residential landscape construction wisdom of “fields and residence integration” and “cyclic regeneration”; and the cultural landscape construction wisdom of “belief first” and “equality of all”.
