Abstract

With the acceleration of the spatial expansion of big cities, the cities and towns in their marginal areas have increasingly become among the most active areas of urbanization. Based on the spatial development process and expansion mechanism of Guali town in Hangzhou analysis, this paper summarizes the characteristics of its urban function and spatial structure, and highlights factors affecting Guali town's development such as market economy, regional environment, and public policy. Under the background of 2022 Asian Games' construction plan, it is highly significant to study the evolution characteristics and mechanism of its spatial form for the public policy-making and institutional arrangement of small towns around metropolis
