The rapid and unplanned urbanization process significantly limits individuals' opportunities for movement in their daily lives, parallel to the increase in building density in urban spaces. In this context, recreational areas stand out as fundamental spatial elements that balance the physical and psychosocial disadvantages created by urbanization. Parks, green spaces, walking paths, and open sports areas encourage individuals to participate in physical activity within their daily routines, preventing a sedentary lifestyle. Active movement in these areas contributes not only to improving physical health indicators but also to reducing stress, strengthening social interaction, and developing a sense of urban belonging. In this respect, recreational areas should be considered indispensable elements that support the sustainability of physical activity in urban life and form the spatial basis of a healthy city concept.
