Green Corridor Plan(1975)/ From Nomadic to Settled

The above images compare the nomadic lifestlye of the Mongols and the modern city life in Ulaanbaatar. Both lifestlyes may seem unrelated to one another, but the Green Corridor Plan (1975) had connected the dots by retaining ger settlments in the urban as well as introducing a public green corridor. This implied that some features of the nomadic culture can be extracted and co-exist in the city life, which not only helps to increase the quality of the living environment but also contains the cultural value and spirit of the Mongolians.
