- Abstract
Research on the sight line design of the Classical Chinese Garden (CCG) is an important issue of CCGs' sustainable development. Taking the Lion Grove as a case, GPS data loggers and questionnaires were employed to collect visitor temporal–spatial data and visiting motivations. We then calculated the "Revisiting Proportion" and "Average Speed" values. Furthermore, we selected the "Visual Control" values analyzed by Depthmap as an indicator of visibility. The statistical analysis of the relationship among "Revisiting Proportion", "Average Speed", and "Visual Control" values of each space showed that the spatial visual characteristic affected the visitor temporal–spatial distribution. Scenery spots in and around the large water pool, within one-step visual depth of each other, occupying the visual advantage of both "seeing" and "being seen", can facilitate the transformation of sight lines and form the visual effect of "one step, one scene". This research also proved that the sight line design of the Lion Grove was more intentional than random.
