الملخص

   This study, as an urban of recreational service study, describes two important types of services, namely (gardens, parks and football fields), which are considered among the needs of urban residents and service different categories and ages of the population who perform them. According to the basic map, the city consists of 12 neighborhoods and has an area of ​​567.1 hectares. As for the municipal borders, its widest area is about 1400 hectares.

   In the study area (47) parks and gardens with a total area of ​​250983 m2 and 10 playgrounds with an area of ​​70007 m2. The geographical distribution of services is that most of the parks are located in the western and lana city neighborhoods of the city, both of which contain 24 parks, which constitutes 50% of the total area. Azadi neighborhood constitutes 26.3% of the total.

Most of the playgrounds are located in Razgari neighborhood, which includes four playgrounds and constitutes 40% of the playgrounds. 39.1% in terms of area.

As a result of using service evaluation. The individual's exposure to the service was found to be less than the standards. Regarding the number of playgrounds, there is no problem because compared to the population (10-11), there is a need for a playground for the city, but the space is clearly insufficient. In terms of distribution, services are generally random and dispersed.

    Finally, the study presented several recommendations, most notably increasing the number of parks to the required area and also increasing the area of ​​playgrounds by building new playgrounds or increasing their area in the event of unused land around them.
