Get off at Donghu Road Bus Station, Yongsheng Shangsha Pocket Park comes into view. There are entrances on all four sides of the park, and the view wall is hollowed out. Here, there is a large flow of people and many buildings. The pocket park with a sense of design provides convenience for urban residents and provides new ideas for optimizing the spatial pattern of the park's green space.
Plants are important to convey beauty to the people. Several small leaf palm trees grow upright in the middle of Yongsheng Shangsha Pocket Park. The branches naturally grow in layers around the main trunk. The layers are distinct and spread out. There are several beautiful exotic kapok trees next to each other, the crown of the tree is umbrella-shaped, the posture is elegant and stretched, and a shade is set up.

Beijing leaves white and green
Plants are more diverse and more ecological, a variety of spaces are used, and there are small forests in the center of the city
In 2019, 17 pocket parks were newly built in Dongcheng District, Beijing, and are open to the public free of charge. Xiangheyuan Pocket Park is one of them. Stepping into it, the trail is winding, and trees such as ginkgo, ash, locust tree, silver red maple, etc. are planted all over the place. When the spring flowers bloom, the green shade covers the whole garden.
There are three different types of pocket parks newly added in Dongcheng District. One is the land acquisition and reconstruction of the green belt, such as Xianghe Garden Pocket Park, with an area of 9450 square meters. "When we first took over, it was still a construction site with several abandoned houses," said Zhang Zhipengcheng, head of the planning and development section of the Dongcheng District Landscaping Bureau.
The second type is to use the retreat space after rebuilding. Like the pocket hospital of Ren Hospital, it is located at the northeast corner of the intersection of Chongwenmen. It was originally used for demolishing green spaces and temporary parking lots. Green space planting ponds are added throughout the site, large trees are planted, plant communities are raised, there are ups and downs, and wooden seats are combined with flower pond retaining walls to increase the fun of the landscape.
The third type of pocket park is based on the existing green space. The East Gate Pocket Park of the Temple of Heaven is located on the north side of the residential building. It is elongated from east to west, with a total length of 220 meters and an area of about 1409 square meters. According to the shape of the plot, the designer takes a small-scale staying area as a point, a streamlined permeable pavement as a line, and a landscape of small trees, shrubs, ground flowers and other plants to form a unique green space.
"In recent years, we have continued to increase planning and construction of green space and increase green space, expand the urban ecological space, so that the green around the people more, beautiful, and live." Gao Dawei, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Landscaping Bureau introduced.

After hard work, 181 pocket parks and small green areas, 52 city parks, and 33 city forests have been built one after another, and more high-level greening products have appeared beside the citizens.
Landscaping in Beijing highlights the concept of urban forests, scientifically allocates plant species, increases the number of food and honey plants, provides food and habitat for birds and insects, and allows the park to bid farewell to "forests and no birds" and become small animals and people living together Shared green home.
As of the end of 2019, the coverage of the 500-meter service radius of park green spaces in Beijing has increased to 83%. More and more citizens can open the window to see the green and go out to enter the park. This year, Beijing will make great use of the space for evacuation and retreat to vigorously supplement and increase greening, promote the construction of "leave and increase greening" of 13,000 mu, newly build 50 pocket parks and small and green areas, 41 urban leisure parks and 13 urban forests The service radius coverage rate of the park's green space of 500 meters was increased to 85%, and the per capita public green area reached 16.5 square meters.
