The need for gardening in different periods in different areas and for different people has led to the creation of different types of Iranian gardens. In the physical space of some Iranian gardens, in addition to the main and inner mansion space, there are also service and side spaces. One of the most important service spaces is the hot tub, and this research deals with this independent use as an element dependent on the garden, and by studying nine examples of hot tubs in the garden, it has investigated the physical and functional patterns of hot tubs in Iranian gardens. The question is, what are the physical and functional patterns of hot springs in Iranian gardens? This research is of a qualitative type and the research method is in the descriptive-analytical theoretical part. Library information collection tools. Based on the obtained information, the physical and functional patterns of hot springs located in the garden were analyzed using comparative analysis. The results of the research show that the hot springs built in the gardens were mostly private or private-public. In some gardens, there is a formal connection between the geometry of the vestibule or the partition space of the pavilion, with the geometry of the Garmaba garden space.By analyzing the positioning of garmabeh in relation to the main axis, sub-axis, koshk and sardar, it can be seen that in all gardens, garmabeh is located in the sub-axis of the garden and in connection with the koshk or the sardar building.

Nowadays, ecotourism has become an important economic activity in natural areas throughout the world, providing tourists with the opportunity to experience natural and cultural symbols and appreciate the importance of preserving biodiversity and local cultures. At the same time, this activity purpose to contribute to environmental preservation and provide economic benefits for local communities. The purpose of this study is to determine optimal locations for building an ecotourism accommodation in the village of Namarestagh, Amol. The present study is both practically and methodologically descriptive-analytical in nature, focusing on the field of urban planning. In order to achieve the research objective, information was gathered through a review of sources in the field of optimal location for ecotourism resorts, using multivariate decision-making methods and geographic information systems. Effective location criteria were identified and finalized by experts in the local tourism industry, and relevant digital maps were prepared. The final criteria used in this study include slope, vegetation cover, distance from residential areas, proximity to transportation routes, proximity to water resources, and tourism climate.Then the desired criteria were standardized and weighted using the AHP and fuzzy methods in a professional and effective manner. Ultimately, combining the layers using the WLC method resulted in a final potential map for eco-tourism accommodation development. The results of criterion weighting indicated that surface water resources, vegetation cover, transportation routes, slope, tourism climate, and habitat had the highest to lowest weights, respectively. The final results showed that seven polygons with over 70% potential were suitable for eco-tourism accommodation in the Namarestagh village. Polygon 1 had the highest potential score of 7110/0 while Polygon 6 had the lowest potential score of 6335/0. In total, 82 hectares of the studied area had a potential of over 70% for the development of eco-tourism accommodations.

Cinema is the arena for the realistic representation of the nowhere lands - suspended between reality and ultra-reality, whilst upholding and sustaining heterotopia – is simultaneously governed by the discourse and logic of power. Kurdish cinema may be viewed as a telling example of this point of view. The main objective of this research has been a content-wise study of this cinema to figure out the strategies employed by the Kurd filmmakers to represent their identity through places. The research methodology of this research was grounded theory in qualitative studies. For this purpose from movies produced in Kurdish cinema (from the very beginning to 2016), 15 films were selected based on the open coding method. The common concepts of the selected movies were re-read through axial coding and selective coding and based on theories on the concepts of identity and representation.  This article refers to the convictions of various thinkers in the field of ‘location’ studies as well as an emphasis on an ‘identity’ centered approach - to present a meaningful model for a more facile understanding of ‘location’. The divisions of the discourses on location - in a three-part model (space, location, and matrix) –follow such an undertaking.  Studying different aspects of location (violence location, space locations, other locations, home, and country) are all further discourses in the field of identity which are further accented with the location. In this regard, the Kurdish filmmakers’ share is considerable - by presenting the periphery and “other locations”. In [this] cinema, ‘other locations’ are presented and delivered in a variety of forms. The findings of this research show that Kurdish cinema is a wave of regional cinema that through the emphasis on language and identity in mostly neorealist productions has represented Kurds and their problems as the main theme of their stories. The productions of this cinema try to establish a nation, bestow identity on these people, and remove the previous prejudices. These movies, through paying attention to themes like war, genocide, poverty, displacement and migration, marginalization and exclusion and mainly by stories related to children and women, produce signs like border, camp, disability, other places, mountain, snow, mine, which all have significations related to the cultural identity. The movie’s stress on the geographical location of Kurdistan signifies a form of nationalism and the construction of “self” in opposition to the “other”.

Today, in field of architecture, interpretive approach trying to review the place and physical perception and rehabilitation of latent meaning in the man-made spaces. This paper deals with the role of the human body in spatial perception created in terms of plasma Johan's ideas. The presence of the body and it’s capacity and mobility capabilities in made spaces and the effectiveness of full and empty spaces on the audience body size could be considered as main architectural features. Therefore first the position of the phenomenology of architecture means looking at the architecture by conscious experience and attention to the presence of humans in the world have been scrutinized and then studied the multi-sensory perception in architecture that plays the most important role theory in mental processing architecture that processes and representations. The present article is done by focusing on qualitative and descriptive perspective for identifying the place with respect to presented approaches by Johann plasma and from phenomenology of multi-sensory perception which have been conducted in the biological space.

 A number of theories have been proposed about the relation between culture, lifestyle, architecture, and spatial structure. The ‘Closet-Space’ or ‘Sandogh-Khaneh’ is an example of this implication. It was considered as a side element in traditional Iranian houses that used to assist the architect in creating the spatial proportions in some cases, but actually, it had a functional role in creating the interior space in traditional Iranian houses.

The purpose of this research study is to investigate the role and function of the ‘closet space ‘and to address its location in traditional Iranian houses; A few Yazd traditional houses have been considered as a case study.

The research adopted the analytical- descriptive analysis. Following the collection of the data through the bibliographic method, and observations were carried in the field. In bibliographic studies, various resources such as books, prestigious journals, and architectural plans were used for gathering the required information.

The findings of the study showed that ‘closet space’ used to play a functional role in creating the privacy and interior space of traditional Iranian houses. A kind of space was allocated for recreation, prayer, meditation, or storage of various tools and equipment; A place next to the key spaces of the house or in a corner place of that space, where its function was also affected by the location.

One of the most important strategic decisions in banking is to find the best locations for the branches of banks as well as credit and financial institutions. Nowadays, because of the steep competition between banks and credit and financial institutions for attracting more resources, understanding the components and factors affecting the improvement of financial resources has gained more importance. The location of the branches of the banks is a very important stimulus for attracting customers. Therefore, it has been closely studied by banking marketers. Therefore, the current study has been carried out to find the best locations for the branches of Melli Bank in Ilam City (in Iran) and determine the most suitable zones using the urban smart growth approach using a descriptive-analytical method. The stages involved in finding the best locations for the bank branches included preparing information layers for each criterion, classifying each information layer based on the values, combining all the information layers, applying the final coefficients of the AHP model, and preparing the final map. Considering the weights of the criteria and the overlap of layers, finally the highly suitable to highly unsuitable locations for establishing the new branches of Melli Bank in Ilam City were determined. Based on the results obtained from the classification, the best locations for establishing new Melli Bank branches in Ilam City were the central districts of the city, and parts of Districts 2, 3, and 4 to improve the citizens’ access to the services provided by Melli Bank.

The purpose of this study are to locate suitable areas for green space development in Gorgan by combining AHP method and fuzzy logic in GIS. In this study, the gamma function with a value of 0.9 has been used. After these steps, the final map of the proposed zones for locating green space in Gorgan has been presented. To implement fuzzy operator in GIS environment, first the effective criteria in spatial organization according to the results of library studies have been extracted and also entered into GIS environment, which are: distance from communication routes, distance from industrial centers, distance From the available green space, distance from commercial use, distance from cultural use, distance from educational use, distance from city center, distance from medical centers, distance from religious use, slope, distance from fault. After standardizing the effective criteria using the fuzzy region method in GIS environment, each of these criteria is assigned a weight based on the AHP method. Then all these criteria were combined and finally a zoning map of lands prone to urban development was produced. Using natural fracture method, the map was divided into five categories: very suitable, suitable, medium, inappropriate and very unsuitable, and it was found that about 13.79% of the study area, which is equivalent to 1895.88 hectares, which is in the very class Conveniently located. This amount is 23.74% equivalent to 3263.356 hectares of the area for the class with suitable capability. About 26.21% of the city area, which is equivalent to 3603,234 hectares, is in the middle class. Also, about 22.40% of the area of Gorgan, which is equivalent to 3080.141 hectares, is unsuitable for green space development. Finally, about 13.87% of the area of the city, which is equivalent to 1906.501 hectares, is in a floor with very unsuitable potential for the development of green space in Gorgan.

Apprehension of the fundamental and noble notions of art, can lead to a better understanding of practical arts such as architecture, the- atre and cinema and their similarities. Architecture, theater and cin- ema, apart from their practical aspect, which creates the environ - ment, in the process of comprehending the space, all three share the same three principals which are interwoven together by architects and directors. This research, with a descriptive-analytical approach is studying the generality of this similitude and the ability to use this similarity in practical arts. Using the virtues of wisdom and experience are two important factors in this research, which can simultaneously use both divisions alongside each other. Architec- ture, cinema and theatre can be mediums to present ideas, and these ideas can be common between different Medias and different fields. Indeed architecture, theatre and cinema are composed of the same main elements such as stage, space, light, movement, and perspec- tive. Architects, directors of theatre and movies are continuous - ly trying to communicate associative concepts in order to narrate ideas and complex concepts in a symbolic environment. Indeed the art of architecture in theatre and cinema represents itself as the factor creating balance and harmony in the shape of images and composition of stage in which special and temporal properties of the space, color, lights, shadows and shades have different effects on spectators. Visual perspectives in the background of a movie have an important role in creating the ideas of the director and the producer of the movie. Actually, directors create the environment and temper of the space and characters by using architecture by the mean of concepts and visual perspective. Identification of these interactions and their effect can be of great help to the artists in cre- ating their artistic product and create an appropriate understanding .of environment and space required for each category

Nomadic life is a way of life with annual relocation in which a group of people moves with their cattle from winter tents to summer pastures and returns to their winter camps in the cold season. The most important characteristic of nomadic life is movement to meet the needs of their life style. This relocation requires certain conditions which overshadow all aspects of nomadic life such as architecture, culture, mood, and even physical characteristics. The nomadic way of life is based on the pattern of movement and settlement which means that the part of nomads’ lives, about two to three months, is being spent moving along the path and the rest, about four to five months, in the "summer" residence and ultimately about four to five months, in the "winter" residence. Thus, during this relocation, two different lifestyles are formed for the nomads, one along the migration route and the other during the settlement in the summer and winter camps. The settlement structure of the nomads in each of these two periods is subjected to different conditions. The study of the physical-spatial system of the nomadic settlement in these two periods and the challenges related to them are the subjects of the present study. Accordingly, the main research questions can be posed as follows:-What are the most important challenges regarding the shape of nomadic settlements along the migration route and what the conditions of accommodation in summer and winter resorts are? - What are the main principles which form the spatial organization of nomadic settlements, the migration route and summer and winter camps? The research method is as follows:Four Boyer-Ahmad tribes were selected as random samples and their places of residence were visited in two winter and summer areas as well as along the migration route and ultimately, the research information was extracted and analyzed. The research is of qualitative type and based on a case study of nomadic lifestyle. Data collection was done in the form of direct observation as well as in-depth and semi-structured interviews with the residents of these tribes. The present study examines residential patterns in two contexts by considering the length of the migration route and summer and winter accommodation and the analysis is based on these two axes in the form of two separate observations. In each follow-up, introducing the way of nomads’ life in that case is accompanied with analyzing the system governing the spatial establishment and the shape of their habitat. Finally, the results showed that finding a suitable place to live for a few days on the Ilarah route is the most important challenge for nomads on the Koch route. Therefore, in that situation, applying the natural elements to create suitable conditions for multi-day accommodation is inevitable as the nomads use rocks and natural barriers to create more enclosure to ensure animal safety, consider proximity of water sources for livestock and family members, the existence of a suitable pasture for a few days' accommodation and the use of sunlight and good wind to provide comfort in the tent. However, in the settlement of nomads in summer and winter camps, the emphasis on different levels of territory is considered as one of the main factors in shaping the physical-spatial system of nomadic settlements. The issue of different levels of territory can be considered in both objective and subjective dimensions. In the objective dimension, territory includes the area owned by nomadic families and in the subjective dimension, levels of private, semi-public and public domain due to the spatial arrangement of blacklists in the camp residence are considered.

Location and allocation analysis is one of the most important network and useful analyzes in GIS. This analysis involves various models that, each model is used to solve various problems. Recently, a new model called VAOMP (Vector Assignment Ordered Median Problem) has been developed that, it can solve many different problems. Given that, the location and allocation problems are very difficult, it is almost impossible to solve them in exact methods. Therefore, the present research intends to solve the proper allocation problem of the population to existing fire stations, which are the emergency facilities, and their optimal allocation have a great importance. The VAOMP model and the Genetic and Simulated Annealing algorithms with three goals such as minimizing the arrival time of the fire trucks to the location of demands, minimizing distance and maximizing the coverage of each station in a radius of 5 minutes, solved the problem. The results of this research showed that the Genetic algorithm produces more qualitative solutions in shorter time, while 10 stations in the 21st and 22nd districts of Tehran are not sufficient to serve the total demands in the study area and 55240 people without services will remain and at least, 13 stations in the region should be created.

The billboards can be more influential if they are used in the proper and desirable manner with regard to the place and location of the installation or the size of the quality level. In the region of Tehran, which is a mixture of modern and traditional urban planning, in order to determine the optimal location for billboards, after collecting location and map data and creating a database in the Arc GIS environment and fuzzy layers, with proper weighting and aggregation These sites have been reviewed and, finally, the points that were of a very good fit were chosen to create a billboard advertisement. According to the analysis done on the generated maps, only 313 of the billboards are installed in the correct location, and 9 suitable locations can be offered according to the overlay map with the Gamma membership function of 1.9.

The cemetery commemorates the current and the after-death life as one of the principles of the religion of Islam and is one of the most important manifestations of the culture and beliefs of the people. Iran’s cemeteries in the Islamic era have identities and concepts different from those they do today and have been considered as a place for pilgrimage and recreation; The fact is being neglected in the design of today's cemeteries and replaced with typical designs. This research with a qualitative research approach and an analytical-comparative research method and field research with library studies is aimed at identifying the needs and the reasons for site selection and construction of the cemeteries. The results indicate the cemetery as an indigenous urban space, a place for social interactions, manifestation of belonging to survivors, cultural identity, and the readability of urban spaces in the past. For example, the cemetery of the Takht-e-fuolad of Isfahan has been considered as one of the most valuable cemeteries in the world of Shiism. This research examines to revive the past cemeteries concept with the comparison of the Rezvan cemetery, which was built outside the city and the Takht-e-fuolad cemetery which is been gradually destructing.

Undoubtedly, an increase in the population of the elderly is one of the most important economic, social and health challenges of the 21st century. The reduced quality of life in nursing houses, which is often neglected, is a significant challenge that should be addressed by the authorities. When living in nursing house is an obligation for the elderly, they often feel rejected, detached, and abandoned for being useless and unworthy. Hence, it is normal that they react negatively. These people often feel insignificant, apathetic and disliked. Regarding the human interaction with the space, increasing the sense of belonging to the place in the nursing houses is an important issue. Being distant from home and family and losing the family support and reduced health, can reduce the quality of life in elderly nursing houses. This research aims at studying the effect of a sense of belonging to place on improving the quality of life for elderly nursing house residents. This research is a descriptive-correlational study that scrutinizes the correlating factors shaping the sense of belonging to place and quality of life for residents of nursing houses in Shiraz. The data was collected through a Likert scale questionnaire. The statistical population of the study includes all elderly men and women living in nursing houses of Shiraz, including 350 people living in 5 year-old nursing houses. The sample size was estimated 184 units according to Cochran formula. However, a more accurate study of the statistical population showed that some intervening factors such as Alzheimer, mental disability, deafness, and illiteracy necessitates the presence of the researcher in the statistical population to identify the conscious elderly. Ultimately, 41 people residing in 5 nursing houses of Shiraz were identified to be able to participate in research. Having interviewed the nursing houses, the researches prepared the questionnaire. The questionnaire was designed based on the five-point Likert scale with 17 questions, including physical, cognitive, and social elements that could affect the sense of belonging to the place. As a result, the factors that shape the sense of belonging to the place including the perceptual-cognitive factors, social factors and environmental-physical factors were examined in three hypotheses. Data analysis was performed using non-parametric Chi-square test. The Chi-square statistic for the first hypothesis investigating the cognitive-behavioral factors in improving the quality of life for residents of nursing houses, is 7.7%, which is 95% statistically meaningful. Therefore, the first research hypothesis, which reminds past experiences and brings identity to people, can be considered acceptable. The second research hypothesis investigated the social factors in improving the quality of life in nursing houses. Having a Chi-square statistic of 268/15, the second research hypothesis was considered statistically significant at 100% level.The third hypothesis that investigated the environmental-physical factors in improving the quality of life for the residents of nursing houses, showed that a sense of place is found in places that are noticeably distinctive and personalized by tangible concepts such as material, shape, texture and color. The environmental-physical factors with a Chi-square of 683/7 indicates that these factors are confirmed by the elderly.The findings show that the attitudes and mentality of the elderly can be changed when the design is based on the effective factors that shape the sense of place. The benefits of such approach delivers tranquility and a sense of security and revives the destroyed feelings. The elderly and the society will, therefore, show a different attitude when perceiving these places. Therefore, this study tries to associate the individual’s life of the elderly with his/her current place of residence (nursing house) in order to recognize the relation and the effect of architecture on the individual’s mentality. Creating a relaxed atmosphere free of stress and mental distresses caused by personal affiliations encourages the elderly to live longer and brings vitality to their life and revives their forgotten position in the society. Therefore, it can be concluded that space and architecture play the fundamental role in this area. The sense of place leads to connection to the context and the individuals shape a combination of roles, function, and characteristics based on their experiences. This role is regarded unique to them, and therefore the place becomes important and meaningful to them. In this situation, the quality of place is ameliorated. Therefore, by increasing the sense of belonging to the place in the nursing houses, it is possible to adapt the elderly to these places and help them improve their quality of life. This requires the design to be adapted according to the needs and demands of the elderly and paying attention to their past experiences.The sense of belonging to the place, which is an important factor in shaping the communication bases for users and the environment, will ultimately lead to the creation of quality in the environments. Physical features (such as form, color, size, shape, scale and texture) and perceptive-cognitive factors as well as social activities also play important roles in achieving a sense of belonging to the place in the elderly nursing residences.

Rural housing in the central part of the city of Boeing Miandasht in Isfahan province has been developed according to spatial-locational conditions in the past, but in the current situation, rural housing has a conflicting, heterogeneous situation that is due to non-compliance with environmental conditions, it has challenged the optimal comfort of rural housing. This is an applied research. The research method is descriptive-analytic. The statistical population of this study is the population of the household and ten villages of 18 villages in three districts (Yeylagh, Gorji and Sardsir) with a central part of the district of Boein Miandasht city. The statistical population consisted of 1996 headed households, as well as 72 nurses and members of the Islamic Council of these villages. Sample size for family caretakers in a randomized-stratified manner was 322 and for the deaners and members of the Islamic Council was limited because of a general census, 72 were selected. To analyze the statistical data, SPSS-22 software was used to describe the results of the Likert spectrum questionnaire as well as T-test, Friedman and Pearson tests to study the research hypotheses. The results indicated that in the t-test, various indices are in an optimal and effective state. On the other hand, based on the Friedman test in the index ranking, it was found that the influence of the index of natural factors with an average of 2.63 in the first rank and the technical index with an average of 2.13 in the last rank. According to the Pearson test, there is a positive and significant relationship between the natural index with the socio-cultural index with a significant level of 0.03, between the natural index and the economic index with a significant level of 0.002, between the economic index and the socio-cultural index with a significant level of 0.005. Based on this, the coexistence and appropriateness of the natural indicators that underlie the impact of the economic, cultural and social subjects on the typology of rural housing, as well as the proportional impact of the economic index, underlies the impact of the socio-cultural index.

the development of different urban dimensions in recent years and the prevalence of new urban development has also affected urban tissues, and today, the urban areas, especially the regions and regions in particular, face complex problems such as the sense of spatial belonging and urban identity, and their socio - spatial status decline is increasing. Therefore, urban landscape and aspect is an important and even challenging issue among urban planning pundits, architecture and environmental design, in a way that the lack of single literature has even led to. on the other hand, most studies concerning the location and issues related to it, including the sense of place in the field of cognitive psychology and education, is not sufficient in urban planning, and it must be designed to make sense for the people and create a region for the shape of mass events by creating public spaces with the quality and optimal conditions among construction density. In this paper, we refer to the principles and criteria of landscape design in order to update the sense of location, and at the end of conceptual and contextual principles in designing the urban landscape to enhance the sense of place and belonging to place.

The purpose of this research is to introduce the general factors influencing the initial location of villages. The initial location of a village has a critical role in its habitation. If location is made in principle, the formation of the village has a rising trend. So, residents be comforted in every respect. Several factors are involved in the formation of the core of a village. These factors must have been so influential that they provide incentives for new settlements and the development of the village body. For the location selecting purposes, the two Kalur and Kazaj regions located in Khalkhal city those are carrying historical-religious rural texture, has been studied. Villages that have religious sites on their texture and more prominent call villages with religious texture. The existence of a shrine in the villages also shows a long history and a long history of living in it. Therefore, the existence of an Imam Zadeh in the rural context, solely, takes the account for the village to fall in the religious and historical category. The presence of Imam Zadeh in rural texture will have a significant role in the formation of settlements which is rooted in the religious beliefs of the people of the inhabitants.
The apparent appearance of the two villages of Kazj and Koolar in the city of Khalkhal has been viewed from two aspects of the external landscape and internal perspective. In a glimpse of both villages, they represent the introverted form, houses of stairs in the center of the village, surrounded by mountains, creating a veil between themselves and the surrounding areas, with a religious center, which in both villages of the center religious places (Imam Zadeh, Mosque) are dedicated. A quick look at the walls of the streets, domes and minarets, the tradition of covering the people, the voice of the "Azan" distributed from the mosques, the presence of people for pilgrimage in the shrines, etc., in the wider view of the external view of the villages to their audience are immediately catching the attention. Therefore, in this paper, we tried to answer these research questions, which are: What factors influence the initial location of villages with historical-religious rural texture and which factors are more important? Is the existence of religious symbols (Imam Zadeh) influenced the development of tissue of studied villages? So, In this regard, using the information and resources available in the libraries, referring to the examined villages, interviews with people, make effective cabriolet, and using the Analytical-survey research method and deductive method, it presents the factors influencing the location and texture of these two villages. Results of this study showed that factors such as the existence of topography (security), water resources, the potential economic potential of land in terms of rich soil and suitable climate, religious symbols (Imam Zadeh), considering their history in these villages, they have high weight compared with other factors which also shows the religious roots of the residents in these villages. In a way that the distance between the Imam Zadeh in the village of Kalur has caused a linear texture in the rural creep and has shaped the focus of the Imam Zadeh in the center of the Kazaj village of centralized culture tissue in the village. However, the lack of Imam Zadeh in the context of these villages, according to the studies and documents presented during the study, would not undoubtedly create the initial core and such a developmental direction for the studied villages.

The proximity educational settings in relation to other land uses, the number of students and the accessibility of the issues that are of interest to urban planners. The aim of this study is to determine the best location for high schools in Shiraz using GIS and AHP is combined with the index overlay model. The research method is descriptive - analytical and practical by nature. In this study, the criteria for locating schools of Shiraz (radius coverage, population density, proximity to a network of streets, neighborhoods incompatible) with each of them was identified and related information. By calculating the coefficient of importance criteria and sub criteria in the AHP, coverage radius by a factor 0/3828 greatest weight and importance of the road network with the weight factor 0/0882 least a high school education centers have an impact on location. Each of them according to the following criteria using the desired weight was Reclassify. Every five first-level criteria, based on the weight of your sub Index Overlay model has been incorporated and the final map Shiraz high schools in order of preference according to their weight and were determined.

The city is a natural community and has complex ecosystem from human activities. Urban environment is component of urban natural ecosystem. Research has shown that urban environment can provide physical and mental products, maintaining human activity and the health of citizen's body and mind. In this regard and due to the importance of environment in cities, in the present study, the aim was to investigate and locate environment in Gorgan city. In this study, the weight of each criterion was calculated using criteria such as distance from the river, away from medical centers, distance from commercial centers, and distance from the sports centers. Then, spatial data in GIS software have become the new layers of information. After that, in order to select the optimum location of urban environment for Gorgan, each criterion was weighted based on the value and its importance in locating environment in AHP and Fuzzy AHP methods to data layers. Finally, the weighted information layers has been presented based on any criteria provided in the form of maps that suggests the best location for the construction of urban environment for Gorgan city.
