The Development of Creative Parks to Promote Cultural Tourism
Abstract
A successful park must emphasize on different needs and interests of visitors. Also, the principles of sustainable development should be applied in the planning and development process of urban parks to promote a good quality of life and mental healing among people of all ages. Well-designed and maintained parks emphasize people’s needs with creative space that can be utilized cost-effectively. Besides, there are diverse positive effects on humans and the environment. Meanwhile, human physical and mental health development enhances economic benefits, especially tourism which results in more visitors to the park. The park can also promote a valuable culture of the local community, which will enhance the public's interest in utilizing park services since culture is one of the key motives for visiting the park.
