Abstract:Since ancient times, the courtyard landscape has been an important form of Chinese landscape architecture. According to the research, some landscape elements already existed in the courtyard as far back as the early Western Zhou Dynasty. Based on the reconstruction of the climatic and geographic conditions of the Zhouyuan site in the early Western Zhou Dynasty,?this paper takes the Courtyard Building A of Fengchu as the object, and through on-the-spot investigation and comprehensive research methods of archaeology, architecture, climatology, and the geology, not only analyzes the landscape elements such as courtyard functions, space layout, accessibility, garden architecture, drainage arrangement, plant and animal varieties from the perspective of landscape architecture but also finds that the courtyard landscape in the early Western Zhou Dynasty was an inheritance and development of the Shang Dynasty. The Courtyard Building A of Fengchu has reached a high level of the same period among the excavated remains of the early Western Zhou Dynasty. The methods, layouts, and techniques of creating courtyard landscapes still have a profound impact today and fully demonstrate the long history and continuity of Chinese landscape culture, which is an important way to understand the historical development of Chinese landscape culture.
