Geographical Landscape on Building of a Beautiful China and Its Development Pathway

Abstract

The eco-environmental conservation and Beautiful China have entered the critical phase. Urbanized areas serve as important spatial carriers in the Beautiful China initiative scenarios, but the most prominent challenges in human-environment relationship and difficult points in building Beautiful China. This study focuses on the physical urban area, and utilizing big data technology to reexamine the spatiotemporal distribution and grouped evolution characteristics of impervious surface in cities, as well as the structural features of urban flow networks from space of flows. Moreover, preliminary thoughts and policy recommendations are provided for promoting high-quality development in urbanized areas of the new era. More efforts should be made in promoting the people-oriented urban construction, introducing the classified guidance on the diversified development path of cities, establishing green, resilient, and healthy urban sustainable models, strengthening technological innovation in smart city, implementing regular urban physical examination, etc., to achieve the realization for Chinese path to urbanization and modernization and Beautiful China initiative.
