Citizens and tourists will see a more beautiful scenery, a better experience in the park, and a more distinctive characteristics of the four seasons.
"Eight Levels and Sixteen Rhymes" shape the landscape garden
As an important part of the Badaguan Scenic Area, the landscape style of "elegant and quiet beauty" is like a unique business card, which leaves a deep impression. However, there are also problems in the scenic area, such as insufficient leisure activity venues, uneven distribution of road network density, imperfect infrastructure, and poor guidance system, which affect the quality of the scenic spot and the experience of sightseeing.
"The total area of this greening improvement project is about 110,000 square meters." According to the relevant staff of Qingdao Municipal Garden and Forestry Bureau, the greening improvement design takes "style protection and people-oriented" as the starting point, and takes "scenery and literature reflect each other, and seeks beauty eight passes" as the planning theme, on the basis of protecting the existing natural and historical features, paying attention to the needs and functional characteristics of tourists, activating the site space, highlighting the vegetation space, and providing tourists with a rich natural landscape experience; Through the "Eight Passes and Sixteen Rhymes", the cultural landscape of the Eight Gates is refined and extended, the historical context is highlighted, the landscape gardens with their own charm are shaped, and the situational gardens and garden-style blocks are created.
"Eight Levels and Sixteen Rhymes" is divided into two parts: the inner eight rhymes and the outer eight rhymes. With Cuihu Lake and Jinghu Lake District as the center, the enclosed area of Zhengyangguan Road, Ningwuguan Road, Zijingguan Road and Shanhaiguan Road is built into the core area of the Badaguan landscape, enriching cultural elements on the basis of the current natural features, highlighting the historical context, and designing eight characteristic landscape nodes to form a landscape-type garden block with the characteristics of the times. The outer eight rhymes radiate the entire Badaguan Scenic Area, around the historical and cultural buildings in the scenic area, shape the landscape gardens with their own characteristics, form a characteristic block where architecture and landscape blend, the sea and the garden reflect each other, and create a panoramic tour loop of Badaguan Scenic Area.
Citizens enjoy a relaxing time
The reporter learned that the greening and upgrading project lasted nearly a year, and due to the cyclical impact of landscaping, some changes occurred inadvertently among the citizens, such as Denmark grass planted in the tree holes of some road street trees, and new antiseptic wood fences were added around them, making the originally monotonous tree holes interesting; The street trees of Shaoguan Road are planted with small-leaved boxwood, which enriches the layering of road greening. The tree holes in some sections of Huanghai Road are paved with volcanic stones, which is not only beautiful, but also reduces the impact of hardened pavement on tree growth. "Greening is a long-term project, we need to study the internal laws and unique personality of Badaguan garden art and traditional greening, and we can't carry out major changes and constructions in a short period of time." The staff of the Shinan District Urban Management Bureau told reporters.

"We've been sitting here all afternoon." Ms. Wang, a citizen who lives on Dunhua Road, told reporters that she and her wife took the subway to the beach for a stroll, but they didn't want to leave when they arrived at Badaguan.
It is understood that the "Zhonglin Yating" node covers an area of about 14,000 square meters, with a total of 388 shrubs planted, and more than 9,200 square meters of ground cover, flowers and lawns, forming a green landscape with flowers in three seasons and scenery in four seasons.
