Abstract

This paper reviews the impact of urban park green spaces on residents’ physical and mental health and systematically analyzes the research findings in this area. Specifically, the influence of urban park green spaces on physical health is manifested through the provision of exercise and leisure spaces and the improvement of air quality (via plant absorption of harmful gases and particulate matter), thereby reducing the incidence of cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. Regarding mental health, park green spaces, through the configuration of plant landscapes, help alleviate stress, enhance mood, and reduce anxiety. They also provide spaces for social interaction, fostering a sense of community belonging and effectively lowering the occurrence of mental health issues such as depression and anxiety. This paper also explores the various factors that influence the health benefits of park green spaces, summarizes the existing research status, and proposes suggestions for future research directions and urban green space planning, aiming to provide theoretical support for subsequent research and policy development.
