Through scientific planning and layout, it has enhanced park service functions and ecological quality by improving trails, recreational facilities, and vegetation landscapes, aiming to have every park feature one distinct theme and one distinct feature.

The city employs methods like questionnaires and meetings to consult the public on their needs and ideas, creating parks with a human touch where residents can feel the city's warmth through co-creation and shared benefits.
