We experience ordinary places and environments every day. Lifescape, landscape in everyday life, is a precondition for existence as well as a background for living. We, however, seldom notice its values because of the veil of familiarity. By rethinking lifescape, we can evoke values not typically associated with cultural landscapes and heritages. Lifescape is experienced everywhere in both urban and rural landscapes, such as the landscape of the CBD, market place, country side, and farmland. Although this conference mainly addresses rethinking lifescape, we also have a special sub-theme on island landscape, which have seen its popularity rise as a tourism destination. The sub-theme includes topics such as unique rural landscape, and sacred places and landscapes of folk religion stone landscapes.
