Traditional villages are valuable material, wealth left behind in urbanization construction and have rich cultural resources. Traditional villages are both symbols of excellent traditional history and culture, and cultural carriers of inherited folk customs. In the context of rural revitalization in the new era, it is of great practical significance to analyze the spatial distribution characteristics of traditional villages and their influencing factors to provide a theoretical basis for the protection of traditional villages and the development of traditional villages in Chongqing. Using geometric analysis and ArcGIS10.7 spatial analysis tools, the spatial distribution characteristics and influencing factors of 110 national traditional villages in Chongqing were explored. The results show that the spatial distribution type of traditional villages in Chongqing is cohesive, with the nearest neighbor ratio R=0.66, which is less than 1. From the municipal perspective, the geographic concentration index of traditional villages is G=37.59, with Youyang, Xiushan, Pengshui, and Shizhu counties as the key concentration areas. From the overall spatial perspective, the imbalance index of traditional villages S=0.79, and the spatial Gini coefficient G=0.617, the traditional villages are unevenly distributed in the four major geographic divisions of Chongqing, with more than 70% of traditional villages concentrated in southeastern Chongqing. In addition, the occupancy rates of western Chongqing, eastern Chongqing and the main urban area are 18.18%, 9.09% and 1.82%, respectively, with serious polarization. Among the many factors affecting the distribution of traditional villages in Chongqing, natural topography, socio-economic, historical and cultural and documentary policy factors dominate. Among the many factors affecting the distribution of traditional villages in Chongqing, natural topography, socio-economic, historical and cultural factors and documentary policies dominate and constitute the unique spatial distribution of traditional villages in Chongqing.
