This study investigates the characteristics of spatial elements and structure in a multi-cultural traditional settlement in DeggerCounty, Sichuan Province, in the Tibetan area of China. This study aims to clarify the geometric spatial representation of traditional settlements. The geometric features of their settlement plans are compared using mathema-tical analysis after examining the spatial arrangement of four typical settlements. Results indicate that the settlement structure has strong centrality. The spatial structure character-istics and proposed spatial models of traditional settlements in this area are discussed to aim for the results to contribute to new village planning and preserve a traditional settlement heritage.
