It is learned from Ningbo Municipal Landscape & Gardening Department that in 2013, according to the "beautiful Ningbo" plan, Ningbo will accelerate the upgrading and transformation of the major landscape roads, avenues and surrounding green spaces in downtown areas. By integrating such elements as flower ornaments, small garden architectures and urban sculptures, Ningbo will make efforts to create the welcoming atmosphere for the main roads and demonstrate the local characteristics of Ningbo's landscape and gardening with the theme of "fashion port, green city".
It is said that in the new year Ningbo will speed up the ecological transformation of the urban green spaces with the aim of creating beautiful gardening ecology and elaborate urban landscapes. All the districts are expected to experiment with new plants on one to two roads and improve some featured sections of roads, creating different landscape effect for different roads. Meanwhile, the upgrading and transforming of the green spaces in some parks will be carried out to make them more in line with the natural and ecological requirements and more acceptable to people. 
A group of new projects of green space construction in parks will be launched in 2013. In the central urban area, the first stage of the riverside green space landscape project has been started and the preparatory work of other projects like the Sun-city Park, the Bonsai Garden and the riverside green belt in the Qinglin Bay Area will be carried out soon. To promote the economical, ecological and landscape gardening construction, Ningbo will focus on the construction of the vacant green spaces besides the major tasks of developing such 3D greening programs as water body greening and vertical greening. The greening of the idle lots caused by the rapid expansion of the urban area and the expansion of the developing framework makes it possible to solve the practical problems in the dead landscape spots.
