Abstract: Currently, a lot of mangrove ecological restoration projects are carried out in the southeast coastal areas of China, but landscape shaping is often not taken into consideration in the design of the projects, which weakens the influence of the projects. Taking the Xiatanwei mangrove park in Xiamen as an example, this article introduces the landscape shaping technology in mangrove ecological restoration projects to enhance the landscape effect and connotations of coastal artificial wetlands. The landscape patterns of “I”, “”, and “pentagram stars”, which implies “I Love China”, were designed based on the size and shape of the contiguous artificial mudflats. The perspective from the surrounding terrain and airway were taken into account to determine the orientation of the pattern. AutoCAD was used to overlay satellite remote sensing images and beach construction drawings, and the design pattern was moved and scaled on the overlay map to ensure that the lines of the pattern fall within the 1.77-2.33 m contour line(1985 National Elevation Datum), where is suitable for mangrove growth, then the final design scheme of the pattern was obtained. In planting engineering, the position of control points was determined according to the construction drawings of beach making. Under the premise of safety assessment, the tree species with different shapes, colors, and growth speeds were selected for intercropping. Fast-growing mangrove plants such as Laguncularia racemosa and Sonneratia apetala were used to outline the lines of the pattern, while the native mangrove species Kandelia obovata was used as the background. After a period of systematic management and maintenance, the mangrove community formed a permanent landscape landmark of "I Love China", thus, highlighting social benefits, ecological benefits and patriotic propaganda effects of the park and integrating marine ecological civilization into the construction of the mangrove wetlands. The construction of Xiatanwei mangrove park in Xiamen has proved that landscape shaping through specific pattern design and planting techniques can increase the social benefits of mangrove ecological restoration project.
