Abstract: As residential buildings become higher and higher, people begin to pay more attention to the views they can see through windows. Currently, the studies on landscape are mostly conducted at the height of human eye level, and little has been done on visual impact assessment of landscapes from other height perspectives. This study divided the high-rise residential buildings into different height partitions and set landscape style, green area, number of colors, water features, and vertical structure as landscape features. Then the residents living in different height partitions were surveyed by photo stimulation experiments and the data were collected and analyzed. The results show that the five features mentioned above are the main influencing factors for the respondents’ visual impact assessment; residents living in different height partitions rendered different visual impact assessments of the landscapes in residential areas; different landscape features exert certain influence upon the residents living.
