Resumen

For decades, landscaping has been interchangeable with urbanism. As ecotourism becomes more popular, there is also a growing demand to look at rural landscaping. In this article, we present an overview of rural landscaping as well as a review of cases combining rural environment and city elements. The interaction of these elements will reflect the importance of preserving local culture and responsible development, especially for small and medium landowners.
