The goal of this paper is to research the challenges and changes of urban public space influenced by modern digital technology, which obscured the differences between public and private space. The context of public space varies with the development of digital technology and the definition has been already adapted. In this modern society, the ever existing digital technology has enlarged the vocabulary of space, diversified urban landscape, and offered brand new experiences for us. In certain circumstances, digital technology provides chances for a city even a country to show itself. In another way, the development of urban public space requires new development of digital technology, and brings about new economic opportunities.
