Abstract

There are many “urban diseases” caused by the purposeless expansion of contemporary cities, such as ecological damage, lack of characteristics, and the same face of cities, which urgently need a new urban planning and construction method to solve the problem. Under this background, “landscape city” was put forward by Qian Xuesen in 1993. Its concept has made great contributions to the ecological and characteristic construction of Chinese cities. Chinese traditional landscape painting is a unique cultural and spiritual content with Chinese characteristics. At the same time, there is a “heterogeneous isomorphism” relationship between Chinese landscape painting and landscape cities. Landscape painting also reflects the ideal way of living of Chinese people since ancient times. Therefore, applying the idea of “harmony between human and nature” in Chinese landscape painting to the ecological construction of landscape cities, and applying landscape culture and spirit to the characteristic expression and artistic conception construction of landscape cities can create ecological cities with unique Chinese characteristics. Taking the construction of Fuzhou landscape city as an example, this paper explores the path of modern city’s “landscape”, summarizes and puts forward some methods of ecological city planning and construction with Chinese characteristics, which has certain guiding significance for the construction of modern “landscape city”. At the same time, it points out that the construction of landscape city with unique Chinese culture is an excellent path to realize the ideal living environment with Chinese characteristics.
