Research on Tulou settlements at home and abroad mostly focuses on qualitative research on humanistic culture and spatial morphology of Tulou settlements, but lacks quantitative research on road network, ancestral hall distribution and cultivated land space of Tulou settlements. Based on the spatial syntax method, the typical river distribution “bifurcation type” Hekeng Tulou cluster and “meandering” type Hongkeng Tulou cluster are compared and analyzed from a qualitative and quantitative point of view. According to the results, both of them show commonality and difference in the data of accessibility, integrated high center area, ancestral hall and cultivated land space, etc. Accordingly, we explore the potential law of Tulou settlement, in order to provide reference for the related research at home and abroad.
