Public open space is a main component of urban space that caters the urban public life daily. In Malaysia, the number of open spaces that are gazetted by the local authority is increasing in line with the rapid development of new areas. Indeed, public open spaces, such as parks and green spaces appear to be key built environment settings that provide opportunities for a variety of physical activity. However, not all public open spaces are equally effective in promoting physical activities. The existing public open space is still lacking of appropriate space for young people to do physical activities. This area is given less emphasis on young people because it was designed for various type of people. Young people as they are energetic and eager to explore new experience, they need some space to spend their leisure time and to express themselves with the activities. This study attempts to answer these questions by carrying out survey using questionnaire to explore factors that affect the use of public open space as place for physical activities and to recommend measures for improving the use of public open space for physical activities.
