Urban parks are the primary places where urban residents reconnect with natural environments. Numerous studies have shown that landscape features benefit human mental health and promote perceived restoration. However, few explored extent to which in can mitigate or compensate for negative effects of artificial on emotions This study employed a field survey method, collecting questionnaire data from 599 participants four Hangzhou, China. The DeepLabV3+ semantic segmentation tool was identify extract panoramic images. Data were statistically analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) explore potential moderating different various environmental contexts results SEM model indicate R2 values emotional state (ES) restorative scale (PRS) 0.359 0.643, respectively, demonstrating an acceptable level explanatory power fit model. revealed not all negatively affect Although Pavement showed significant impact Perceived Restoration (β = -0.155, p 0.004), their effect 0.111, 0.115).
