Comprehending the environmental perception allows the understanding of how happens the relationbetween human being and environment, and from this knowledge we obtain subsidies to create conservation policies, and for the decision taking about management strategies of public green areas, like urban parks. It is from this perspective, that this study have identified the environmental perception and use of urban parks by regulars of Jardim da Conquista Park (JCP), besides having identified the environmental perception of the frequenters of Jardim da Conquista Park about the JCP.

And the research was divided in two phases, the first called: “Environmental Perception of Urban Parks”; and the second called: “Environmental Perception of Jardim da Conquista Park”. In the first phase, it was identified how the interviewed goers of Jardim da Conquista Park realize and use urban parks.
