Opis

Historic urban parks play a very vital role in forming the nature of behaviour and activities. Therefore, it is not only an urban component in the city tissue. But it is the place, which holds the nature of human life, and by reusing of the landscape design inside it, we can develop and direct the activities and behaviour in the best way according to the society and place characteristics. The main goal of this research is to reach an integrated coinage for the open parks in the historic old cities. This coinage can offer the reasonable explanations for the relation between historic landscape design and the behaviour and activities inside the space. The proposed evaluative model divides the process of evaluation into three main pivots falls through detailed evaluation points, which in turn contribute to the access of the significant features for the evaluation process, these main pivots are: ( Urban park layout and landscape design - Urban Park and activities - Historic landscape perception).
