Abstract

Urban river system is important carrier of water resources and water ecology, also a witness of urban historical context and an important part of urban culture, especially for ancient historical capital Xi'an. The research selects the actual site, established the base planning model, analysed and demonstrated the main design levels of the waterfront park, made it closely related to the historical context, and obtained the implementation path of generating effective schemes. From the perspective of context continuation, the study puts forward that the cultural context of water is an important part of urban context, the cultural context of water is an important content of urban heritage protection. This study proposes that in urban planning and the design of urban river system waterfront environment, we should respect and pay attention to the protection and continuation of historical context, fully excavating the historical information, then generate the planning and display design scheme. Taking Xi'an Zao River Waterfront Park design as an example, this study analysed the historical context of Zao River, excavated the elements reflecting historical information, designed the waterfront coastline and road traffic, displayed the historical context of Zao River in the way of historical path, and retained the cultural information of urban historical water system in a friendly and interactive way. The research and example scheme generation process is significant to relevant waterfront environmental planning.
