Environmental quality of public spaces and its elements is the first and most important tourist attraction from the point of view of rural tourists and can cause tourism boom. Accordingly, the purpose of the present study is to investigate and analyze the environmental impact of public space on destination villages in attracting tourists.

The research method is descriptive - analytical and data collection was done by both documentary and field methods. In this study, eight villages of Torqabah and Shandiz which have tourist attractions and are popular in the area were studied. The statistical population consists of rural tourists and the sample population consists of 194 tourists. Pearson correlation test, one-sample T test, and Vikor's model were used to analyze the data. The statistical population consists of rural tourists and the sample population consists of 194 tourists. Pearson correlation test, one-sample T test, and Vikor's model were used to analyze the data.
Results and discussion
According to the results of single sample T test, the highest value was related to functional component with mean (3.08) and the lowest value to aesthetic component with mean (2.94).According to the correlation test, there is a significant relationship between the components of environmental quality and is generalizable to the whole community. Also the results of Vikor model showed that Jagaragh village is in the best condition in terms of environmental quality of public spaces and Kang village is the lowest.
