Abstract：Humanistic geography is an important school of western geography, however it has been down since the 1980s. Moreover, the development of humanistic geography in China falls further behind than that in the Anglo-American academic circle. As one of founders of humanistic geography, Yi-Fu Tuan's thoughts also have triggered hot academic discussions especially after he passed away. It is necessary to reconsider how to inherit and practice his humanism thought which is extremely lacking in reality. How to act towards humanism has become the most crucial question in the post-Tuan era, both for academia and its practice, as well as the daily life of human beings. Yi-Fu Tuan's academic thinking and his place-based experiences are closely related to his sense of place. Through refreshing the interacting history of his academic thinking and place-based experiences, this paper reveals that humanism is the product of the interaction between "academia and place", "self and world" and "thought and practice". Humanism is not only a worldview but also an exploration and action beyond daily life. Inspired by humanistic geography, there are four paths that can guide us to seek the world of humanism: reflecting self and world, balancing localism and universalism, breaking out of the narrow departmentalism and living transcendentally. Humanism is an essential course for human beings at both the practical and academic aspects, it has become a very important tradition in geography. Humanistic geography shows a kind of value, and more importantly, it provides us with a different path for practice. In the future, humanistic geography has great prospects for development. Chinese geographers should go deep into this field and stick to it because it is not only about our understanding of the dwelling world or nature, but also about our true understanding and positive action by ourselves in everyday life.
