Environmental crisis is a hot topic in today’s society. People are constantlytrapped in a vicious circle of “destruction first and protection second”, whichforces people to search for a solution to the crisis. In order to achieve theecological balance of the landscape environment, urban landscape designers havebegun to tend to recreate natural ecological landscape design. Although ithighlights the natural beauty, this design tendency ignores the important role oftraditional culture in the development of the society and results in themonotonousness and lack of cultural elements in landscape design, which causesa “culture loss” phenomenon in society. With the rapid development of China’surbanization, fusing cultural elements into landscape design has graduallybecome the mainstream trend in modern design. Landscape designers try to show,in their designs, the city’s unique traditional culture and the inseparablerelationship between man and nature. What’ more, mixing natural beauty andcultural beauty into design works, designers work hard to reproduce the civilizedlife style, folk culture and exceptional artistic creation in their design. For majorlangscapes, these attempts are vitally important.In recent years, as a famous historical and cultural city, Xi’an isendeavoring to transform into a world-renowned cultural city. Tang Paradise andQujiang Pool Relics Park and other scenic spots, designed with the concept of“Qujiang Model”, has improved urban environment significantly and exuded a“green, low carbon, environmental protection” landscape design concept, whichsignifies a new phase of city culture.
