Abstract
Aiming at the spatial distribution and industrial distribution characteristics of industrial heritage built after 1949 in China, using visual analysis methods such as kernel density analysis diagram, point distribution diagram, pie chart, and chord diagram, a macroscopic analysis of the industrial heritage of New China is carried out from the perspectives of overall and regional research. The results show that the industrial heritage of New China is mainly distributed in central and south-western China as well as in the north-east. Spatially, it is characterised by macro-uniformity and micro-agglomeration; in terms of industrial characteristics, the industrial heritage industry types in the border areas are dominated by a single heavy industry, while those in the inland areas are more abundant. In addition, nearly half of the industrial heritage of science and technology is located in southwest China, and the industrial heritage of transportation is mainly located in east and central China. Finally, the future development of China’s industrial heritage conservation and reuse is reflected upon and foreseen.

The Heihe–Tengchong Line (simplified Chinese: 黑河–腾冲线; traditional Chinese: 黑河–騰衝線; pinyin: Heihe–Tengchong xian), also called the Aihui-Tengchong Line (and internationally as the Hu line), is an imaginary line that divides the area of China into two parts with contrasting population densities. It stretches from the city of Heihe in northeast to Tengchong in south, diagonally across China. The eastern portion, area shown in red in the map, is further subdivided into north and south halves.
As of 2015, 94% of China’s population live east of the line, in an area that is 43% of China’s total, whereas 57% of the Chinese territory is west of the line has but only 6% of the country’s population.
