Rapid urbanization in India has asserted one significant set back-destruction of greens in urban communities to clear a path for development. The level of human alteration or moulding past which a natural landscape ought to be viewed as a cultural landscape is abstract and has been a state of discussion and a wellspring of disarray. On one hand, cultural landscapes have regularly alluded uniquely to agricultural or rural landscapes that happen between the natural and urban landscapes. Place attachment is a widely studies concept that has been used to de scribe and analyse people–place relationships. Memory, imagi nation and landscape are linked. People’s perspective changes as it comes to talking about Inside(r)ness and outside(r)ness. The world looks different depending where you see it from, whom you see it with. This study inquires to associate the phys ical attributes of people-place bond in terms of place associated with attachment, identity, dependency on one’s feeling of in sider-ness and outsider-ness and their association to the place in respect to Public Open Spaces in a peri-urban settlement of Rancharda.
