Abstract
⺠The first study to comprehensively explore the beneficial health outcomes and well-being of urban blue. ⺠Using an extended therapeutic landscape concept, we observed and questioned users of promenades in city centres. ⺠Positive health aspects distinctly prevail over negative outcomes. ⺠Key aspects for health are the physical environment, social relationships, emotional attachment and the possibility to engage in a variety of outdoor activities.
