Project Abstract

After the first studies focusing on Tongurlar Village in Gölpazarı district of Bilecik, it has emerged that district-scale studies should be carried out within the scope of the project. The study aims to define the potentials of the villages in the district and to create an infrastructure for future research. In the studies carried out by the Rural Planning and Design team, all villages in Gölpazarı were examined in terms of settlement types, economic potential, cultural heritage values, accessibility and population change. In terms of landscape values, forest flora, agricultural product atlas, product-time schedule were created. Common themes were determined for the villages by using the graphcommons interface, and areas where work could be done for the future were suggested. In addition, spatial formation and architectural features were defined in the villages of Tongurlar and Kurşunlu, which are the first stage of study areas.
