The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal,as a corridor connecting economic and cultural development and exchange between the north and south regions of China,has been playing a crucial role in promoting the rise and prosperity of cities along the river.We selected eight major cities along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal for the comparative study on their spatial forms,used spatial syntax to deconstruct urban spatial networks,and ana-lyzed the differences in the internal structures of each city.Different cities were calculated using urban fractal dimension and compactness index,and their external morphological characteristics of urban space were analyzed.These cities were classified into simple urban spatial forms,complex urban spatial forms,and complex urban spa-tial forms.Finally,based on the analysis results,targeted urban development suggestions were proposed for the spatial development of cities along the Grand Canal and other cities along the river.
