The sampling method used in this research is non-probability sampling technique with purposive sampling type with a total sample of 100 respondents. This research has assessed the overall condition of the park which shows a fairly good level of optimality. Some key indicators such as cleanliness, availability of facilities and visitor comfort have met the expected standards. The results of the surveys and observations show that the park has become a place of interest and is frequently visited by the community. However, some parks in the study sites still do not meet the appropriate standards and their use is not optimal in environmental, social, aesthetic and economic terms.
