As the spiritual capital of Iran, Mashhad city welcomes each year a number of enthusiastic religious tourists, which has led, after tourism, to developing grounds for creating public spaces and the urban development growth. The main purpose of the current study is presenting strategies and recommendations in the field of tourist attractions and taking benefit of the monuments and old districts in Mashhad and revitalizing the historical places of Payin Khiaban neighborhood considering that the place usage should be appropriate to the type of place.
