“…That is to say, the mediating effect of the CSL between soundscape perception, landscape perception, and tourism experience is significant. This also verifies views of other scholars that the congruence of soundscape and landscape plays an important role in environment perception (Carles et al, ; Zhang et al, ). In Figures and , we can see that the congruence of soundscape and landscape has a stronger effect on shallow experience than on deep experience.…”

“…People can have good experiences only when soundscape and landscape are congruous (Carles, Barrio, & Lucio, 1999). Otherwise, the environment will be evaluated negatively for improper soundscape, even if its landscape is scenic (Zhang, Zhang, Liu, & Kang, 2016). Congruity of soundscape and landscape requires not just a simple combination of elements but a congruence among those elements (Jin & Hong, 2015;Pheasant et al, 2010).…”

This paper explores how soundscape and landscape influences tourism experience by the cases of Leshan Giant Buddha and Mount Emei, China. Results show that there is a mutually positive relationship between soundscape perception and landscape perception; soundscape perception indirectly affect tourism experience through “the congruence between soundscape and landscape”; and only landscape can directly affect shallow experience. This study also brings implications for tourism research and practice: soundscape should be given more attention as it can significantly affect the tourism experience, and relevant industrial sectors can improve tourism experiences through the design or control of soundscape.

Abstract: Soundscape research represents a paradigm shift from noise control policies towards a new multidisciplinary approach as it involves not only physical measurements but also the cooperation of humanity and social sciences to account for the diversity of soundscapes across countries and cultures, with more focus on how people actually experience the acoustic environments; and it considers environmental sounds as a 'resource' rather than a 'waste'. The ten questions presented in this paper range from the very basic definitions underlying the emerging soundscape 'science', to more applied topics about how to use soundscape as a design approach for the planning and management of the built environments. Although significant research activity has been conducted so far, there is still a need to systematically provide the underpinning science and practical guidance in soundscaping. Thus, the last question aims to identify the most crucial gaps in soundscape research and set the agenda for future advancements in the field.

“…There are many kinds of sound sources in a temple [45], with courtyard sound fields varying greatly under different sound source conditions. In this study, the Chinese Buddhist temple's ringing bell, their most representative sound source, was selected.…”

The acoustic environments of Han Chinese Buddhist temples have long played an important role in the development of Buddhism. This study explored the effects of layouts and spatial elements of Han Chinese Buddhist temples on courtyard sound fields. First, sound fields of three traditional Han Chinese courtyards were measured, and results were compared with sound field simulations to determine the appropriate acoustic and software parameter setting for ancient building materials in the context of sound field simulation. Next, a sound field model for standard forms of Han Chinese Buddhist temples was built and analysed. Results indicate that in traditional Buddhist temples, spatial elements-such as the height and sound absorption coefficient of temple courtyard walls, position of courtyard partition walls, and the position and height of bell towers-could significantly affect the sound pressure level (SPL), reverberation time (RT), and musical clarity (C 80 ) of each courtyard. However, enclosure materials, such as those used in roofs, on the ground, and in windows of Han Chinese Buddhist temples, had relatively small effects on temple courtyard sound fields.
