Abstract
Individual sounds and soundscapes can influence individuals, their place evaluations and
potentially their psychological restoration. As urban park soundscapes can vary greatly, ranging
from quiet, serene oases to noisy city spaces, it is important to understand how they are perceived
and evaluated, as they could influence people’s experience and evaluation of the park in general.
This paper studies the different types of soundscapes that are perceived in urban parks and
examines if these soundscapes vary in their perceived restorativeness.
