Background and Objective: Interpretation of historic urban gardens as a text containing multilayer meanings, in order to creating a structure that meets the physical and spiritual needs of humans over the time, would be a reason for planning for new functional requirements in new urbanism. In this research, by assuming that the historic urban gardens have a readable and comprehensible pattern language in Persian’s gardening tradition, we attempted to recognize the pattern language of in Masoudiyeh Garden, Farah Abad Garden and Negarestan Garden. Method: In this study, research is "theoretical", the philosophical basis of research is interpretive, research approach is qualitative and research design is deductive-comparative. The method of data analysis is through the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the data gathering tools are library studies and survey research. Findings: Having reviewing the literature of research and determining the pattern language of the Persian gardens and weighting the patterns in the data analysis stage, the results showed that physical structure with a weight of 0.428 is more important than functional structure (0.334) and a spatial quality structure (0.238). In the overall results of the patterns and final weight of the adaptability of the pattern language of the gardens shows that Masoudiyeh Garden ranked the first with a weight of 0.436, and then the Farah Abad Garden (0.345) and Negarestan Garden (0.219) stands second and third.Discussion and Conclusion: In this way, the understanding the language of urban historic gardens can be a basis to respond to the needs of today’s circumstances.
