Conclusively evaluate the study area by visual quality and visual sensitivity. Visual quality based on VRM systems that appraise on landform, vegetation, water, color, adjacent scenery and visual pleasure degrees six indicators. Visual sensitivity selected relative slope of landscape, relative distance of landscape, the visual probability of landscape as evaluation indicators. Weighted superposition two evaluates results by GIS system and so on. Through natural breaks divided visual resource into four grades. Grade Ⅰ accounting 43.65% of total area, Grade Ⅱ accounting 37.21%, Grade Ⅲ accounting 15.17%, Grade Ⅳ accounting 3.97%. The results showed that Luan Country had a better overall visual resource, but a number of towns in the central that visual landscape resources need to be improved.
