From a human-centric perspective, improving the spatial quality of historical districts is a key focus in achieving their refined governance. Based on a public survey performed in Zhangzhou Ancient City, we explored the differences in the perception of cultural landscape genes (CLGs) between residents and tourists with different individual characteristics, utilizing non-parametric tests and box-plot analysis methods. The findings indicate the following: Tourists have a stronger perception of CLGs related to site layout and architectural features than residents, while residents have a stronger perception of cultural customs. Gender-related differences in the perception of CLG are only significant among tourists, with females showing a higher level of CLG perception than males. Residents of different age groups show a “U-shaped” distribution in their perception of CLGs related to site layout, whereas senior tourists have a lower cognitive perception level. People with lower educational backgrounds among residents tend to perceive cultural customs more significantly, whereas tourists with diverse educational backgrounds do not perceive them as having a significant impact. Residence location, visit frequency, duration of residence, and residence nature are key positive factors affecting the perception of CLGs. Our study highlights the significance of considering the users’ characteristics in enhancing the refined governance of historical districts.

游客与居民视角下历史街区文化景观感知比较研究

从以人为本的角度看，提升历史街区的空间品质是实现历史街区精细化治理的关键。基于漳州古城的公众调查，利用非参数检验和箱线图分析方法，探讨不同个体特征的居民和游客对文化景观基因（CLG）感知的差异。研究结果表明：游客对与场地布局、建筑特色相关的社区景观的感知比居民更强，而居民对文化习俗的感知更强。对 CLG 的认知与性别相关的差异仅在游客中显着，女性对 CLG 的认知水平高于男性。不同年龄段的居民对与场地布局相关的CLG的认知呈现“U型”分布，而老年游客的认知认知水平较低。居民中教育背景较低的人倾向于更显着地感知文化习俗，而具有不同教育背景的游客则不认为文化习俗有显着影响。居住地点、访问频率、居住时间、居住性质是影响社区社区群体认知的关键积极因素。我们的研究凸显了考虑用户特征对于加强历史街区精细化治理的重要意义。
