조선시대 한성부의 형성배경과 입지적 특성

Abstract

The forming background of Hansungbu is quite different from the present urban structure of Seoul and hasinfluenced deeply on the location of major facilities. The urban structure of Hansungbu was formed and embodied withthe influence of general developing principles of preindustrial capital-city in the east Asia. Major city facilities wereconstructed with the principle of walled-city and dynasty-city, providing meaning and functions for those facilities. Thestandard for the decision of sites for those facilities was based on the physical environment such as mountains and river,and also on the location of palace and wall of Chosun dynasty. Of course those sites had their meaning and functions.This background of historical city of eastern Asia resulted in the different development of urban structure which has adifferent arrangement of facilities between the inside and outside of an inner city, considering on the location ofdynastys palace. The urban structure was thus fragmented between inner city and outside, and also inner city structurehad multi-layered land-uses and hierarchial forms according to the characteristic and meaning of places. This researchleaves some further required studies for a detailed understanding of the urban structure of Hansungbu, for exampleJuregogonggy and the characteristics of urban structure of Gaesungbu in Korea dynasty. Also, it needs to consider theinfluence of the regal power for the development of urban structure and the forming of landscape in Hansungbu.
