This paper presents landscape parks as objects of research in historical geography, a main advantage of which is its synthetic approach to the study of landscape parks as opposed to the more singular approaches of other sciences that also deal with parks (e.g. dendrology, garden architecture, art history, and biology). It focuses on landscape design and construction principles and their links to the natural and sociocultural environment. It interprets the societal impulses and inspirational bases that led to the expansion of the landscape park fashion, as well as the design basics that define their appearance. It also deals with the contemporary significance of landscape parks and the possibilities for their preservation and restoration. It outlines methods for studying landscape parks.
