Summary

The Xinjiang section of the Silk Road is recognized as the largest linear, multi-dimensional cultural landscape and ecological corridor, representing a significant human influence on natural landscapes. This study advances the concept of a 'cultural landscape corridor,' integrating landscape ecology with heritage protection to better understand local social structures and regional culture in Xinjiang. By spatially analyzing the interplay between cultural landscapes and historical relics along this route, the research provides insights into the complex interactions between human activities and environmental heritage.
