Evaluation of the benefits of urban waterfront plant landscape from the perspective of tourist perception

This paper aims to explore the impact of urban waterside plant landscape on tourist experience, and construct an evaluation system to evaluate its landscape benefits, so as to provide optimization strategies for plant landscape design, and enhance the tourist attraction of waterside and enhance tourist experience.

Taking the Changde Chuanzi river scenic belt as the evaluation object, the obtained evaluation results are used to propose relevant optimization strategies for plant landscape construction. Using field research methods to obtain tourists' perception of plant landscapes and the basic information of plant landscapes of the evaluation objects; a beauty evaluation system was constructed consisting of 1 objective layer, 4 criterion layers, and 16 indicator layers using the analytic hierarchy process, and calculate the weights of the evaluation indicators to obtain the top five ranked indicators; Using the evaluation system as a scoring reference, invite experts to score and obtain relevant indicator scores; Then input the scores of each indicator into the landscape benefit evaluation model and calculate the final value.

The plant landscape efficiency score of the Chuanzi River scenic belt is 3.49, and the overall evaluation is average; The evaluation is good in terms of generating comfort, accessibility of plant space, and leisure and recreation indicators; However, the score on the indicators of strong hierarchy of plant configuration and adaptability to landscape architecture is not good, and the evaluation is average. Based on the scores of various indicators and combined with tourist experience perception, formulate relevant optimization strategies.

In the evaluation system of urban waterfront plant landscape benefits, the ecological benefits (0.387) in the criterion layer are ranked first, followed by aesthetic benefits (0.316), humanistic perception benefits (0.152), and recreational space benefits (0.145). The top five evaluation indicators in the indicator layer are coordination with the surrounding environment (0.107), plant community diversity (0.107), improvement of environmental quality (0.107), generation of comfort (0.097), and spatial hierarchy of plant landscape (0.096). In addition, improving environmental quality, having a strong sense of hierarchy in plant configuration, providing novel and exciting experiences, and adapting to landscape architecture have poor scores, which affects the overall score situation. Develop plant landscape optimization strategies from three aspects: creating an immersive sensory experience in plant landscape space, strengthening the hierarchical relationship of plant community structure, and emphasizing the co creation of plants and other landscape elements.
