Urban tourism is considered a significant factor in the development of cities, and its wise development and management require planning based on the wishes of tourists. In recent years, city parks have become the main tourist entertainment center. On the other hand, urban green spaces play a key role in improving the environmental quality, livability and sustainability of cities. Based on this, among the types of green spaces, linear green spaces are usually formed along a natural factor (sea, river, etc.) in a longitudinal or strip form with public use, and the creation of coastal parks in addition to establishing a relationship between human and nature, it can act in the direction of preserving natural resources and preventing the destruction of the ecological potential of the region. Parks are one of the public spaces that are very important according to the research topic.
