Spatial scope of the study eight small urban parks from district one of Tehran were selected from twenty-two districts to collect preliminary data. The results of the analysis showed that the characteristics of pocket parks affect the perception of restorative and the components of mystery, coherence, legibility, visual access, greenness and complexity are significantly related to the perception of restorative of mental fatigue and the component of openness at a higher level.
