Taking Yuanjia Village in Liquan County of Shaanxi Province as an example, based on Google Earth high-precision remote sensing images, and use participatory village assessment, ArcGIS spatial analysis, and spatial syntax to analyze the evolution of village land use functions and village spatial pattern in the development of rural tourism, and to explore the impact of tourism intervention on the spatial pattern of the village. The results show that: (1) The spatial pattern of Yuanjia Village changed significantly from 2002 to 2022, which is manifested in the change of land use type from villagers’ living and production dominance to the needs of tourism development, resulting in the spatial structure of the village shifting from single-core radial centered on villagers’ living space to multi-core intensive dominated by tourism space,rural tourism has prompted the network of spatial relationship; (2) Rural tourism has contributed to the complexity of the spatial relationship network, while the stability of the village transportation space and the dominance of the spatial structure are highlighted in the process of land function fragmentation; (3) The evolution of the spatial pattern of Yuanjia Village is driven by various factors such as the market demand and the government’s regulation, and the positive response of the villagers and the rational updating of the spatial function are among the key forces.
