摘要

本研究關注萬華青草巷，探討產業地景形塑的因素與脈絡。青草巷是北部青草商業最大群集處，是一條已都市邊陲化又漸受關注之古市街，是臺灣特殊社經結構下之產物。本文首先建構臺灣青草產業發展脈絡，以艋舺、龍山寺區域地位變遷之兩大背景為基調，來析視青草巷產業地景之演繹、形態與影響因素。近年青草巷傳統商業活動發生變遷，與文化、觀光封包，在觀光凝視下，青草巷產業逐漸成為歷史文化與在地記憶之載體與擴散源，實證了社會與空間之力量拉扯歷程，將銘刻於地景並形塑意涵。
研究結論如下︰一、青草已延伸出新時代的意義，反映在地醫藥文化受到政經主流權力壓迫與再結構之過程。二、青草巷位處艋舺龍山寺旁，其大區域地位之升降，是影響產業地景變遷之結構性因素。三、受到產業變遷、人口變遷、都市發展與科技發展四大向度影響，青草巷由單一個點之流動攤販，匯聚成線狀的街巷店鋪，再擴大至地區環境整體塑造之層面；由昔日的宗教醫療地景，逐漸轉化為保健養生與文化觀光地景。四、公部門主動推動文化觀光，是地景改造之重要力量，驅動了青草巷店家建立新思維與組織，亦回應著觀光化與商品化邏輯與消費需求，但介入的手法與目標，儼然將空間導入依附權力關係下之櫥窗形式展演，並矯飾、抑制著在地主體性。五、產業法令與空間保存規範，徒有限制手法，未有效回饋至整體產業需求。推動商業街區發展，效果大多外溢，發生了支援周邊觀光場域的效果，遠遠超過了青草巷產業本身之特殊現象。

Based on the Herb Alley at Wan-Hwa, this research is to investigate the factors and process that which are influencing the transition of industrial landscape. Herb Alley is the biggest cluster of herb retailing in the Northern Taiwan. It is a historic street in the process of marginalization of Taipei city development. In addition to introduce the background of Lung-Sun Temple and Herb Alley, the evolution and impact factors of the transition process will be discussed. The evolution process from herb commerce to tourism and cultural place has demonstrated the social-spatial interaction effects on the industrial landscape.
Major research findings are summarized as follows:
1. Herb industry has changed its social position from medical function to cultural contribution.
2. Since Herb Alley is located nearby Lung-Sun Temple, the development Herb Alley is also influenced by the urban development process.
3. The content of industrial landscape of Herb Alley is influenced by factors in four different dimensions, namely, industrial function, population changes, urban development and technological development. In brief, the importance of Herb Alley has shifted from medical function to tourism function.
4. Although the city government has tried to influence the development of Herb Alley, the hardware-oriented approach could not effectively establish local identity.
5. The existing regulation and spatial management schemes have more function in restriction than in resource integration. The government projects make more contribution to the surrounding tourism development than to the improvement of Herb Alley itself.
