Moreover, the open spaces can be categoried in five groups: which are, (1) open spaces around agricultural areas; (2) open spaces around public water areas; (3) public open areas; (4) open spaces along transport lines; and (5) entry space in institutions. These factors played an important roles in land usage and open spaces in different time. From the past to the present, the relationship between the factors and the pattern of the land development demonstrates trends that community need more open space, for instance, public parks, exercise areas, recreation parks, and activity parks for the community. In fact, there are many open space areas in Yantakhao, but these spaces are not used up to their full potential.
