傣族是我国西南边境地区聚居的古老民族。在历史长河中，傣族人民发展出了独特的灿烂文化，其中就包括独特的建筑文化。傣族全民信仰南传上座部佛教，自古以来，傣族人民将他们虔诚的宗教信仰寄托在兴建佛寺上。一般来讲，傣族的民居皆比较简朴，相比之下，佛寺建筑规模较大，工艺较为讲究，可谓傣族建筑艺术的集大成者。景迈佛寺位于景迈山古茶园遗产地中，是傣族佛寺的典型案例。佛寺的布局、环境和建筑都能反应一定的傣族传统建筑技艺与建筑文化。除此之外，目前为止学界还没有针对傣族宗教建筑进行较为微观的研究，亦没有从物质层面分析傣族的建造技艺。因而笔者在此进行抛砖引玉，为后续可能的研究记录一些信息。同时，在物质层面之外，景迈佛寺是一处具有活态特点的宗教遗产，体现在当地居民对佛寺的使用、维护、更新从古代延续至今，佛寺与当地社群之间的联系是当地文化的重要组成部分。因而若想全面地理解景迈佛寺，也要对佛寺的功能进行关注。在保护过程中，如何对佛寺进行准确价值判断，避免建筑所承载的信息的遗漏，是重中之重。本文内容大致分为三部分。一为对景迈佛寺建筑的研究记录，二为对傣族地方性建筑语言的总结归纳，三为佛寺功能及保护问题讨论。充分的研究是进行保护工作的前提。本文中梳理了现有对西双版纳地区傣族佛寺的研究，将景迈佛寺在大区域中进行定位，然后对景迈佛寺的建筑形制、构造、装饰、非物质文化遗产等方面进行了考察，并与周围地区的佛寺进行对比，旨在寻找傣族佛寺独有的民族特点，从而对佛寺价值进行准确判断。此为保护修缮工作的基础。之后，着眼于活态、宗教、古建筑的多重特点，对缅寺的修缮保护进行初步探讨。实际的保护项目具有极大的复杂性，所遇到的问题难以简单概括，因而笔者只能结合实地调查的所见所闻，整理出保护过程中遇到的部分问题，为后续研究以及其他相似案例提供参考。

Dai is an ancient ethnic group in the southwest border of china. In the long history, Dai people have developed a unique and splendid culture, including the unique architectural culture. Dai People have been stuck to their Theravada Buddhism belief since ancient time, and they have been using the construction of the temple as a reflection of their religious faith. The temples represent the top of the Dai Architectural art.Jingmai Temple is located in the heritage site of the Jingmai Ancient Tea Plantation, and it is a typical case of Dai temple. Its layout, environment and architecture can reflect certain traditional craftsmanship and architectural culture. In addition, there has not been a thorough study of one Dai's religious architecture, nor analysis of the Dai architectural craftsmanship. Therefore, this paper is aimed to provide such information. At the same time, beyond the material level, Jingmai temple is a living religious heritage, which means the local residents still use, maintain and restore it ever since the ancient time. The link between Buddhist temple and local community becomes an important part of local culture. Therefore, to fully understand the Jingmai Temple, attention should be paid to the religious function of the Buddhist temple. This paper is divided into three parts. The first one is a study on the Jingmai Buddhist Temple. The second part is the summary of the Dai architectural styles, based on the comparison between Jingmai Temple and other temples in surrounding area. The third part pays attention to the temple’s function and its preservation. Sufficient research is the premise of the conservation and preservation work. This paper reviews the former research on the Xishuangbanna Dai Temple, and then review Jingmai Temple’s architectural form, structure, decoration, intangible cultural heritage. Then, based on the comparison, this paper tries to find the unique characteristics of Dai Temple, thus accurately determine the value of the temple. After that, based on the living character of the temple, the last part probes into the restoration and preservation of the temple. The real preservation project is far more complex than the theoretical analysis. Problems can never be summarized comprehensively. This paper only sorts out the problems that the author experienced, aiming to provide a reference for further research and other similar cases.
