Abstract：Based on six soundscape case studies in small historical and cultural areas, including the South Putuo Temple of Xiamen city of Fujian province in 2006, the downtown of Kashkar city of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region in 2006, the Niangniang Tample of South Gaoluo village of Hebei province in 2007, the Nanxiangkou local music performing area in Hebei University of Shijiazhuang city in 2010 and 2011, Qianjuntai village and Zhuanghu village of Beijing city in 2012, a certain relationship analysis between the acoustical parameters and the subjective assessment was put forward in this paper by the approach of semantic method. By using semantic differential analysis and series category method to qualify the vague subjective assessment of hearing to soundscape timbre, this paper analyzed the quantitative relations between one of the most important objective acoustical parameters-equivalent sound pressure level abbreviated as Leq and the subjective semantic assessment. Meanwhile, the paper compared the experimental data done by the common students and the native people, to prove that the soundscape planning or transformation of the old areas may be not only represented by some sound waveform, sound pressure level, spectrum and other acoustical parameters or the advice from the experts and visitors, but some more detail information related the traditional issues, cultures, living ecology for the local people. On the other hand, it should pay more attention to the cultural and historical inheritance and understand the connotation of those sounds so as to preserve the survival of its original characteristics of the native happening places, behaviors and customs.
