Parks are indispensible open spaces in modern cities and have multiple functions including art, aesthetic, recreation, disaster prevention, and micro-climate improvement. The values of city parks should be evaluated using quantitative methods which identify the economic, social, natural, and cultural factors and quantify visitors' satisfaction. This study selected the Tainan Park as the case and constructed a valuation model through multivariate analyses. The results showed that "quality of public facilities," "quality of recreational facilities," "quality of convenience and site," and "quality of rest and landscape" were four important aspects when visitors evaluated the service functions of the Tainan Park. Further, we found that visitors can be separated into four groups according to the characteristics of their evaluations: "service oriented group," "convenience oriented group," "facility oriented group," and "recreation oriented group." "Signpost," "explanation board," "seesaw," "swing," "toilet," and "pavilion" are six important items in visitors' evaluation of the service functions of the Tainan Park. These findings may serve as references for related planning in the future. |
