Abstract
The presence of recreational open spaces in urban areas is of paramount importance when it comes to promoting physical activity and improving one’s overall health and wellness. To perform these activities, the public tends to visit public urban parks. These public urban parks are a combination of six different attributes: amenities/facilities, connectivity, physical features, visual attributes, surveillance, and management. These attributes are qualitative, but to understand these attributes, quantitative measures should be done. Therefore, this study focused on quantitative attributes analysis using the Likert scale as a tool. This study assessed the importance and performance of each park based on twenty-four different factors using the Importance-performance analysis (IPA) method. A study was conducted on six selected parks in Korba city to determine the importance of each factor that attracts visitors. The study also aimed to identify gaps in these factors that need improvement to enhance the quality of the park. The findings of this study provide a methodology for local officials with guidance on how to design and manage public parks that encourage the public to visit the parks. Furthermore, it creates a standard for other cities with similar population densities to measure their park qualities and take necessary measures. This approach can be used in recreational space to evaluate the current situation.
