Abstract
Parks and green spaces are very valuable because of their dual role, namely recreational importance as well as impact on preservation and balance of urban environment, mitigation of pollution and cleansing air, and reduction of spiritual and physical exhaustion. The role of these spaces is not limited to recreational issues, therefore they need to be considered by planners independently.
Attention to criteria such as characteristics of flowers and trees, their arrangement, their applications in different places and conditions on the one hand, and taking into account of human issues such as the tendencies and feelings of human beings, their behavioral patterns, the culture of parks (dealing with and using them), the proper equipment and facilities, habits, customs and countless issues of the same kinds on the other, necessitate an accurate and comprehensive design. In this paper, we have tried to study the above materials in a detailed way so that they can meet the different needs of readers and people of different ages and social groups.
