Parks are built for fulfilling urban person's longing for the nature, increasing social and cultural interactions and enabling human comfort in the open area. Parks are the most important elements of urban open-green area system. Planning and design processes of parks should be carried out carefully. At this point, one of the most important issues is to carry out these processes with multidisciplinary, participatory and multi-denominator togethernesses. Of course, the most important one of these sharers is people who will use the park that will be designed and built, in other words, users of that park. In this study; users' satisfaction rates for security, maintenance, quality, sufficiency and development speed of urban parks in Konya and Kirkuk have been determined. Based on the data obtained, satisfaction levels of users of Konya and Kirkuk urban parks have been compared. According to research findings; it has been determined that there are significant differences between participants of Konya and Kirkuk provinces in terms of security, sufficiency and development speed parameters. Based on the findings and results obtained, suggestions have been made to relevant people and institutions.
