Historic and cultural scenic spots are concentrated spaces that hold historic and cultural value for a city, and their streets form the foundation of their scenery. Therefore, the street quality of historic and cultural scenic spots plays an important role in promoting the cultural and economic development of a city. We evaluate the development potential of road quality in historic and cultural scenic spots by using spatial data and the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method. First, three-dimensional evaluation indices are constructed based on the functions of streets, including the perception of the natural environment, the perception of human emotions, and the accessibility of spatial facilities. Then, the weights of the indicators are calculated using the AHP method, and the evaluation scores of historical and cultural scenic spots are calculated based on spatial data. Finally, a ranking of historical and cultural scenic spots is obtained by combining the weights of the indicators and the performance of the scenic spots to determine the high-quality potential historical and cultural scenic spots of a road. The method proposed in this study is applied to Yanta District, Xi’an City, China, and high-potential scenic spots are analyzed in depth based on the ranking results to provide suggestions for the construction of historical and cultural scenic spots. By comprehensively applying spatial data and AHP methods, we can effectively identify cultural scenic spots with high street quality potential and provide targeted suggestions for the construction and development of cultural scenic spots.
