The paths of three urban amusement parks in different locations in Istanbul were evaluated by students of the University of Istanbul in three separate sites for examination of security, landscape quality, or both. The purpose of this study is to determine the level of personal safety in urban recreational parks and indicates whether there is a sufficient assurance through useful studies of using such a judgment in recognizing the effect of the feeling of safety in the park's designed areas to see the relationship between the sense of safety and the appearance and visual charms of the urban parks? The results of the research show that there is a strong relationship between visible parts, aesthetics and observed security in the three studied parks. Other research findings show that there is a weak correlation between visible safety and beauty.
