Eco-park a short form of Ecological Park. It is imposed as an amusement park without hampering its natural environment so that the bio-diversity remains unaffected [1]. An ecological park is also a place where wildlife habitat is introduced into a city so that it can be self-maintaining according to ecological principles (e.g. diversity of species, ecological soundness, sustainability, etc.), and into which appropriate wildlife is introduced that can be maintained with minimal energy supply. Higher priority is given to the ecological environment than in other parks [2]. With the rise of environmental issues due to the expansion and development of a certain city, and recognition of the importance of ecology has increased. The eco-park is visualized to include a range of sustainable and restorative uses related to agriculture and ecology [3].
