This paper reviews Mr. Huang Guangyu’s major ideas on the eco-planning of mountain cities. The primary principle is that the spatial structure of a mountain city must adapt to its eco-environmental characteristics. The primary foundation is evaluating the natural eco-environments’ suitability of a mountain city and integrating urban development with the spatio-temporal pattern of ecological resources. The non-construction land has to be scientifically planned because it is closely related to the ecological security of a mountain city and affects the quality of urban settlements. The working methodology is a multi-disciplinary collaboration and integration, as well as all-round thinking through a combination of theoretical research and practice. These theories have been put into effect in the planning projects by Huang and have had far-reaching impact. In brief, they can be regarded as the spirit of mountain cities.
