Summary/Abstract: On the one hand, fast developing technology provides social cultural benefits to people and on the other hand it is obligatory to live in unhealthy environment. To emphasize the importance of green areas is the concepts that need to be taken seriously. Green areas are areas that increase the quality of life in urban living areas, which therefore have a direct impact on human health and psychology, and bring ecological benefits to people and the environment. In recent years, vertical gardens have begun to increase rapidly as the horizontal green areas gradually decrease with the reaching of serious environmental problems. Green areas serve many purposes, such as reducing environmental pollutants, providing a living space for wildlife, preventing erosion, and affecting urban development. In this context, green spaces are important in ensuring that people are intertwined with nature in daily life by eliminating the longing for people. In this study, the place and importance of green areas in the culture of Uyghur Turks and their importance for societies will be investigated.
