Research methods carried out with qualitative and quantitative approaches through field surveys, interviews, questionnaires, statistical data processing. The analysis was carried out using SWOT analysis to get a comprehensive picture of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in the function of pedestrian paths in historic areas.
