Urban Landscape & Healthy City: Mechanisms and research questions regarding the impacts of urban green landscapes on public health and well-being

The study presents a summary of critical environmental problems in contemporary cities, especially major high-density cities, and the serious public health crisis resulting from those environmental problems. We explain five theoretical pathways through which urban natural landscape influences human health and well-being: relieving stress, reducing mental fatigue, and enhancing social capital. A theoretical framework connecting urban natural landscapes with health outcomes is established and a set of relevant empirical studies are presented.
