Categories of earth-sheltered buildings were summarized, and it was proposed that landscape features of earth-sheltered buildings were demonstrated mainly as "ecological, landscape-like and systematic". Landscape elements such as entrance, road, water and greening were believed as major means of showing landscape features of earth-sheltered buildings. Entrance landscape design of such buildings was analyzed from the perspectives of plane-type, slope-type and step-type forms. Road design for these buildings should respect natural terrains so as to connect spaces and organize traffic routes reasonably. Waterscape design should take both landscape effects and loading capacity of roof into consideration so as to meet water-loving psychology of the public, virtual and real approaches should be combined to create waterscapes. Greening design of earth-sheltered buildings was explored from the perspectives of roof greening and vertical greening to improve the green coverage rate and show favorable ecological effects.
