In recent years, with the continuous promotion of the Lanzhou lighting project, the scope of the lighting project has become wider and is no longer limited to cities, commercial streets, and other places. The government has also begun to develop mountain lighting, and mountain lighting has gradually entered people's vision. On the one hand, the natural landscape inside the city is gradually decreasing, and most of the mountains are located in the outskirts of the city. As rare natural landscapes, the mountains inside the city can serve as outdoor paradise amidst the hustle and bustle, It can also be a gathering place for cultural landscapes, so the lighting of the mountains not only optimizes urban lighting, but also creates a unique night scene. And the mountain lighting has also added adjustable and controllable elements, which can be said to be a precedent for domestic mountain lighting projects.
The mountains in the city are not high, generally not exceeding 100 meters, and are comparable in height to urban buildings. Many lighting managers and designers in cities subconsciously consider mountain lighting as a regular building, blindly pursuing the overall brightness of the mountain, reconstructing the night mountain scenery and shape with a large amount of lighting, or shining the mountain brightly regardless of priority. As a result, there are numerous mountain light poles and dense power lines, which have brought many negative impacts on ecology and landscape. Landscape lighting projects are complex and expensive, and also bring serious waste of funds.
