Abstract
The Kyoto-gvoen National Garden became one of the people's parks after World War II, and developed into a park with elements from both urban and natural parks. The paper deals with these changes of the Kyoto-gyoen National Garden after World War II, from the viewpoints of the beginning of the people's park system, the provision of similar urban parks' facilities, the inclination toword nature conservation that prevailed afterwards, and so on. The people's parks were born in imitation of the U. S. A national park system. The new park's facilities were provided according to the design principle of “Hare and Ke”(the front and the back). Therefore changeable parts were co-existed with changeless parts in the Kyoto-gvoen National Garden.
