Landscape plays an important role both in tangible function and visual perception. Landscape ca be seen as an ecosystem, made of biotic and abiotic elements. Earlier “landscape ecology” mostly adopt a holistic point of view. “Landscape character Assessment” prepared by The Countryside Agency, UK is adopted as a pre-evaluation of regional landscape planning. Here “landscape character” is defined as a distinct, recognizable and constituent pattern of landscape that makes one landscape different from another. The process considered as many aspects as possible to form a base for future landscape planning. In this study, by top-down approach and a hierarchical “land character unit-visual unit” framework, the study area was classified into 10 landscape units with different character. Then, followed by description and assessment for each unit, and the result was integrated as an example to judge the sensibility of landscape; to be a suggested process for planning future protected landscapes.
