Modern living conditions in cities lead to increased levels of stress. Building density, production volumes, level of urbanization are increasing: the factor of nature as a way to reduce stress is absent. A solution is required, where "city" and "nature" should become synonyms in people's minds: a new urban development strategy that meets human needs in the natural surrounding space, in particular, city tasks of preserving natural landscapes and the transformation of disturbed areas to ensure a favorable environmental situation of locality. One of the ways to solve this problem at the city level is landscape urbanism: a modern concept of development and modernization of urban space, solving issues of mutual functioning of different urban areas through the introduction of "buffer" landscape spaces. In Russia, landscape urbanism is just beginning to gain popularity. Its principles are widely used in the design of recreational spaces in large and small cities. The existing examples allow to consider the effectiveness of landscape urbanism in the context of improving the ecology of the territory, the universality of its functional purpose and the aesthetic attractiveness
