Abstract

The phenomenon of the village imitating the city means that in the process of urbanization the village imitates the city on exterior landscape, while still quite maintains the village characteristic in internal relations. That the farmers have a bigger benefit from developing in the village and the threshold is too high for them entering the city causes the phenomenon. The farmers partly share the city life in the village, but it causes the chaotic construction of the village and disperser urbanization. This article proposes that small towns agglomeration development in the process of urbanization prevents the spread of the phenomenon.
