Introduce several famous and representative European classical gardens.

The tradition of European garden culture can be traced back to ancient Egypt. At that time, the gardens imitated the nature cultivated and transformed by human beings, not the geometric nature, so the western gardens began to develop along the geometric road. Among them, ancient Egyptian gardens, ancient Greek gardens and ancient Roman gardens are the representatives, among which water, evergreen plants and colonnade are all important gardening elements, which laid the foundation for the gardens of 15 and 16 century Italian Renaissance.

In the 8th century, the Arabs conquered Spain, brought Islamic garden culture, and combined it with Christian culture in continental Europe, forming a unique garden style in Spain. As the symbol of life and the source of meditation in Arabic culture, water often appears in the courtyard in the form of a cross canal, representing four rivers in heaven: water, wine, milk and honey. All kinds of decorations change delicately, and tiles and mosaics are the first choice for facing. This type of garden has greatly influenced American gardening and modern landscape design.

At the end of 19, more designs adopted regular gardens to coordinate the relationship between architecture and environment.

Influenced by the arts and crafts movement, the garden style is more concise, romantic and elegant. The garden consists of small-scale spaces with different functions, emphasizing the use of natural materials. This style influenced the later landscape design in continental Europe, and it still has some influence today.
