Abstract

Due to the current corona pandemic situation, people's acceptance of urban spaces has changed due to their presence. Historic buildings are one of the reasons for attracting people to attend public spaces, and the space in front of these buildings is also a hangout for people. The space in front of Khosrowabad mansion in Sanandaj is the only pedestrian green road in this city that can offer better quality despite the public welcome.
While reviewing the literature on the subject, 3 components "social / human; environmental; "Physically" was identified. The present study is applied in terms of purpose type and survey research in terms of method. The analytical tool used in this research is Gindrooz technique, according to which the density of lines indicates the density of physical, social and environmental events and the length of the lines indicates the importance of the events and is obtained through a questionnaire and a green survey. In this study, 100 creative Ginderzi questionnaires are used to identify landscape features in the summer of 2020 and suggestions for improving landscape qualities are presented.
