As the result of China's accelerated urbanization process, a fast pace of life and increased work pressures have strengthened the desire of urban residents to return to the countryside and reconnect with nature. This project not only provides a natural recreational space for the public, but also protects the local natural landscape and ecological environment, while serving the purpose of environmental education. It advances the conservation of reticulated red earth, while enhancing the public's awareness of the matter, increasing their understanding of nature and environmental protection. The endless stream of tourists, students, and social groups has also helped to develop rural tourism in the surrounding ancient village, thus having a positive and extensive impact on the local people and the park itself.
We want to establish a connection between humans and nature, as well as humans and places. This connection is a dialogue and response to a site. We hope to respond to the sculptural beauty of nature with veneration and simplicity.
