Summary
Urban green spaces, such as Zamość's Planty, play a crucial role in mitigating the negative impacts of urbanization and modern lifestyle, including congestion, pollution, and social disengagement. The study highlights how these historically significant areas can be revitalized to foster community interaction and environmental sustainability. By analyzing spatial organization and recreational dynamics, researchers demonstrate that well-designed green spaces can counteract the 'trickling' shift toward virtual reality and digital dependency. The approach combines architectural, urbanistic, and landscape studies to propose solutions for creating inclusive, functional public spaces that balance historical preservation with modern urban needs.
