Urban parks are the areas that improve the
quality of life in urban areas and offer a significant
contribution to the urban ecosystem. The principal
factors that determine the level of contribution to the
urban ecosystem of these areas are the presence of
natural vegetation, vegetation diversity and the ratio
of impermeable surface of the areas. In this study,
ecological analysis of 23 parks in the city of Kilis has
been made at the determined criteria level. At the end
of the study, the naturalness value of Kilis city parks
were found to be high (65,09%); soil impermeability
ratio of parks is within the rage of %71,01-%9,8; and
21 parks are under the impermeability standards. In
addition, it has been found out that vegetation diversity in the parks is insufficient. Under the light of
findings, some precautions were proposed in order
to improve the ecological quality of the parks in Kilis
