At the end of 2020, Xi'xian New Area has built 2.4 million m2 of modern garden cities, more than 50 km of sponge roads, 1.4 million m2 of resilient park green space and established a green coverage of more than 50% of the urban space. The target of becoming a green city in which everyone can 'see green in 100 meters, step into garden every 300 meter' has been realised . The urban parks and green spaces play a role in regulating local microclimate and also improve the urban environmental amenities for residents. In a comprehensive performance assessment for the Climate Resilient Cities facilitated by the Climate Change Department of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment , the Xi'xian ranked number 9 among all of the 28 pilot cities.
