River landscape isn't attractive as usual, and the watershed ecosystem is deteriorating. These global environment problems have been widely concerning by the international society. Along with the enhancement of environment consciousness, ecological awareness and the improvement of living standards, the society's request to near-nature improvement of the rivers has become more and more urgent.Many of the river landscape architecture improvement from developed countries told us that near-nature theory and the technology had been used in the river landscape enhancements.
