Abstract: The Central Axis of Beijing represents the epitome of this typical feature of ancient Chinese capitals. In 2020, the Beijing government decided to extend it southward and northward, ushering in new opportunities for its protection and development. Based on the “Historical Urban Landscape” analysis framework, the paper constructs an overall analysis framework of the central axis, including its historical evolution, its relationship with Beijing’s macro landscape pattern and its changes, its relationship with urban elements, and the property rights arrangement and public opinion analysis in its governance. Under this analysis framework, the paper expands the overall positioning of the new axis, and on the basis of the integration of historical and cultural heritage, natural ecological factors and urban elements, puts forward the overall control and management strategy system including the control scope, extension direction, horizontal space, axial space, traffic, water system, green space and ecological leisure system, context and governance system.
