A probe on the planning and construction of Country Park: A case study on Gualv Lake Park, Guangzhou Metropolis

摘要

Country Park's limiting the disorganized spread of urban space is one of the important components of the green space system, and is also one of the most popular construction activities in many metropolises in China. But at present, there are still many problems regarding the theoretical planning and its practical applications. This paper selected "Gualv Lake Park" beside "Zengcheng", a county-level city, as a case which used landscape planning and combined impound water and sewage interception project systems. The park is a "demonstration area" with the four traits of "nature, simple, low-cost and ecology". When the first phase was implemented, the park shows its virtues through service functions for ecological systems and flood control. Finally we find that in-depth study of characteristic construction processes is very helpful for understanding rules of Country Park planning, and significant for the protection policy of land-use.
