Title Break the tourist bubbles!: Spatial stratregies to acheive liveable local places and explorable tourist destinations in developing Chinese cities, Hangzhou as a case Author Chen, Shuangyun (TU Delft Architecture and the Built Environment) Contributor Romein, A. (mentor) Verschuure, G.A (mentor) Degree granting institution Delft University of Technology Programme Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences | Complex Cities Date 2020-07-06 Abstract The activity of the urban tourists can confine to distinct urban tourist zones, the tourist bubbles. It causes segregation between city life and the tourist area. The thesis digs into this phenomenon with Hangzhou as the case city. The goal of the project is to reintroduce the locals into the tourist area and invite the tourists to explore the city. It sets up the spatial patterns of the three types of tourist bubbles in the city and analyses the interrelationships between the tourist areas and the moving-staying mode of the different types of visitors. The three representative tourist bubbles are West Lake which stands for the urban scenic areas, Hefang neighbourhood which stands for the traditional neighbourhoods, and Qiaoxi Museum clusters which stands for the cultural building clusters. Based on the analysis and the pattern system, the thesis proposes the spatial strategies for different bubbles and for the Hangzhou city to break the bubbles.
