Abstract

Global research on landscape architecture investigates the perceived safety in
parks. This thesis tackles the investigation of the landscape architecture of Al-
Azhar Park, Cairo, Egypt. Given that prospects-refuge makes perceived safety
perform better, this research focuses on 20 types of prospects concerning the
eight factors of perceived safety. This research aims to strengthen the feeling
of perceived safety in public parks through landscape imagery by
investigating which landscape scenes are most perceived to be safe.
Using a multi-choice survey designed using google forms and sent to 200
respondents through social media, the results from IBM Statistical Package
for Social Science (SPSS) statistics show that the types of prospects are
essential factors in creating parks’ safety. The data were analysed in a
quantitative method to conclude forms for the relation between the types of
the prospect and the eight factors of perceived safety related to landscape
architecture elements. Two schemes of analysing data were used, descriptive
statistics and frequency distribution.
The concluded remarks highlighted that the panoramic views are preferred
and perceived safety among other prospect types. Good maintenance,
aesthetics, microclimate, privacy, and entertainment are the most factors
associated with perceived safety. Future studies could test the prospect types
through qualitative analysis and other parks besides Al-Azhar parks.
