Through the use of regional cultural vocabulary design, people can change the image perception and cultural awareness of the city, and promote the construction of urban spiritual civilization, thus strongly demonstrating and inheriting urban and regional culture and shaping the urban temperament. In this paper, the application of cultural vocabulary of landscape facilities is illustrated by actual cases on the basis of analyzing the significance of the expression of cultural vocabulary of landscape facilities.展开更多
