Abstract
Urban peripheral green space (UPGS) plays more and more important role in sustaining urban physical and ecological environments. In this paper, a preliminary classification of UPGS was presented for seven types and quantity index of UPGS was discussed tentatively. The quantity and layout problems in urban peripheral green space, and the several principles were mainly discussed in urban ventilation and sanitation, recreational opportunity and landscape ecological structure.
