Abstract
“Grass grows vibrantly by the pool and birds sing happily on the willow tree.” The verse vividly depicts a scene commonly seen in the beautiful and livable countryside. Rural areas assume multiple functions such as providing agricultural products, offering ecological services and carrying forward folk customs. They are also the places where people can enjoy the natural landscape and recall their love of nature. In other words, the beautiful countryside is the source of quality agricultural products, the backyard and garden of cities, and the spiritual home of people who are away from their hometown.
