Building a forest city requires sufficient area of urban forests and an expedite water circulating system. Taking Shanghai asan example, it isproposed that China should develop its urban forestry through networking of forests and water areas due to high density of population, limited land resources and poor water circulating system. In orderto develop aconception of urban forest with Chinesecharacteristics, this paper elaborates implications, foundation, evolution and development of the new conception through comparative studies of urban forest developmentinside and outside China.
