It analysis the situation of these space: "double core" intention is diluted, artificial skyline and vertical interface is damaged, old town’s border intention is weakened and the shape and space texture of streets are damaged. Finally it proposes the following planning strategies: to protect "double core" structure overall, to control building height and establish "vertical purple line", to protect the landscape pattern and Circumanbulations on the peripheries and to protect traditional architectural patterns.
