Abstract:In the process of cultural reconstruction of Lingnan culture, Lingnan gardens gradually move from the edge to the center, leading the development of Chinese landscape. As an important carrier of Lingnan garden, urban park in Guangzhou has been constantly improving its connotation and increasingly displaying new dynamism. From the perspective of cultural reconstruction, this paper focuses on the living process of the construction and development of urban park in Guangzhou in the 70 years since the founding of the People’s Republic of China. It summarizes and reveals the inner relationship between the social and cultural development and the park construction based on the social and cultural background of different periods. It is proposed that the diversified cultural basis, the policy of adaptation to local conditions and the pragmatic humanism point out the direction of the development of modern Lingnan garden, and enhance confidence to its further advancement.
