Abstract
The city wall relic park in Zhengzhou is a city park built on the Shang Dynasty city Wall site. As Zhengzhou is chosen as the eighth ancient capital of China, it is gradually recognized by the public. However, due to the lack of protection, development and utilization of the site, the historical value and cultural value of the Shang Dynasty Wall in Zhengzhou have not been fully shown. The construction of the city wall relic park is related to the soft inheritance and protection of the historical heritage. The spiritual inheritance of the historical heritage mainly depends on the spiritual transmission of the public. The public has the most direct feeling and understanding of it, so it is necessary to introduce public participation. In this paper, the scientific evaluation method Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) is used to discuss the problem found by the public when using the city wall space. Suggestions and public participation strategies are given on the construction of the city wall relic park. We need to think about if there is public participation in the site now and how to let the public participate in planning, construction and management of the relic park. In order to make the city wall become the city’s leisure living room, to build the brand of Zhengzhou, and make it famous across the whole country, it’s urgent to put forward countermeasures for the development problem of Zhengzhou.

It can be seen that the opinions of masses are of great value and significance, so what is the current status of public participation in the Shang Dynasty city wall relic park? Can ordinary citizens be involved as a force in the heritage protection and park construction?
Some people thought that the restoration of the city wall on both sides of the East Street was a fake, and some even called it ‘two coffins’
Summary
The 200-meter-long northern part of the eastern city wall uses a modern rammed earth technology as the restoration method. The street corner space and the relic park are distributed with green space, activity squares, fitness grounds, children's bunkers, corridors and pavilions, which meet the surrounding residents’ needs of daily leisure activities, but the instinct feeling is that the characteristics of the city wall relic and surroundings are not connected. The cultural and archaeological value of the city wall relic and surroundings are not connected. The city wall relic has given a favorable support to Zhengzhou in order to increase the value of the city to become one of the ‘eight ancient capitals of China’. The city wall relic park has become the performance stage of urban civilization landmarks, the influence of the current city wall relic is very limited and much work remains unfinished
