The Health Route is a recreational park in Shiraz that has brought a dead urban space back to life. This site provided a genuine opportunity to have a place in the city that is firstly a public space for social interaction and secondly offers an equal opportunity for all to improve their wellbeing. The Health Route, the highest-equipped sports park in the country, was built to answer the problems it faced. In short, the space had several main actors such as some of the most critical ecological elements of the city, diverse social users, challenging economic and social conditions.
