Border vista
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
A border vista or boundary vista is any defined cleared space between two areas of foliage intended to provide a clear demarcation line between the two areas. Border vistas are most commonly found along undefended international boundary lines and in landscaping.[1]
The best-known border vista is a six-metre (20 ft) cleared space around unguarded portions of the Canada – United States border.[2]
Similar clearings along the border line are provided for by many international treaties. For example, the 2006 border management treaty between Russia and China provides for a 15-meter wide cleared strip along the two nation's border. [3]
