Abstract

Urban living environments lose their state of greenness every other day, under the dense pressure of technological advancements. This disappearance in green areas accompanies many other losses. However, green space systems in cities are significant investments for citizens, given the fact that they help people have healthy lives in the future. These systems are important components to contribute to sustaining natural life and forming microclimate. In addition, they are recreational areas that bring positive effects on human psychology by offering different natural landscapes every season. This study aims to emphasize the importance of green areas within the sample of Botanical Gardens. Botanical gardens embody different natural beauties and help a variety of plants, indigenous to different climates, be introduced to people. There are specific areas in the botanical gardens that contain a diversity of plants exhibited for educational purposes. Furthermore, since these areas have a major function for the tourism industry, they are effective for strengthening the socio-economic structures of the given countries.
