Conservation and preservation of landscape heritages in the urban area are often done for the scattered particular space. Also, it is a current situation that the view point with a high regard for the distribution throughout the region and for the regional landscape emphasizing on history has been scant. Considering such a problem consciousness, in this research, by investigating the landscape heritages and comparing regional history and peculiarity, formation and inheritance of the landscaping space (landscape heritages) traditionally perpetuated was brought out. Also, how they had been changed and improved at time advances was researched as well. Subject place of this research is Mukojima area running through the east bank of the Sumidagawa-River in Tokyo, the regional peculiarity of which was analyzed from two view points, the life history and the spatial history. As a result, fact that this area having landscape characteristic as an agricultural community had been changed and improved by the industrialization in the twentieth century, was pointed out. And, it was cleared that this area had changed in significant influence of the water damage, despite the area of an abundance of water resource and transportation by water. It was found that landscape heritages in Mukojima area were closely connected to the formation background and the changes of this area. Therefore, it is necessary to have viewpoints of the research and conservation for the landscape heritages and their surrounding area.
