Abstract: Urban ecosystem is a complex artificial system. The rapid predatory development of cities has led to a series of ecological problems, such as sharp decrease of green ecological space, water resource shortage, serious pollution, prominent heat island effect and large urban brownfields with serious pollution. This paper takes brownfields in a traditional natural resource-exhausted city as a typical case, proposing that urban brownfields must be restored with ecological wisdom. It menaces to build an urban brownfield ecological restoration framework inspired ecological wisdom. Based on the practices of ecological restoration in Taiyuan city, it has put forward ecological restoration countermeasures including brownfield ecological safety, function and landscape restoration, and proposed ecological wisdom strategies including diverse regeneration by stages and types, function revitalization by land use and planting and greening with anti- pollution community.
