The industrial landscape implies the evolution of the human community and his habitat over time and is influenced by the physical constraints and opportunities that are being imposed on it by the natural environment and external, internal, social, economic and cultural constant forces. The 21st Century cultural landscapes contain vast post-industrial landscape of the world. Due to their natural resources and features, these lands are encroached by mankind and have been poisoned through the process of absolute productivity. Therefore, if we imagine the landscape as a progressive discourse on society and culture, then human intervention in nature, whether good, bad or ugly, should be regarded as an industrial landscape. One of the important issues is the observation of the landscape and the industrial heritage alongside each other. Therefore, the repurposing needs to be addressed more thoroughly and comprehensively as changes are made. In this regard, the purpose of this study was to investigate the constructive components of the adaptive landscape as a missing link between the landscape and the industrial heritage left over from the past.This research is a qualitative research and using library studies and content analysis, comparing and analyzing case examples in order to achieve the research purpose, after presenting constructive components of the adaptive landscape, the mentioned components and the industrial heritage of Khuzestan will be compared adaptively.Findings of the research indicate that adaptive landscape can be considered as a bridge between landscape and industrial heritage. Also, post-industrial sites in Iran, especially in Khuzestan (oil industry), can be considered as an appropriate option as an adaptive landscape and the link between the landscape and the industrial heritage of the country.
