Hospital architecture has long recognised the therapeutic impacts of open spaces, whether indoor or outdoor, on patients' recovery processes. It has become critical to not only provide open areas with therapeutic effects for patients, but also to establish a link between the interior of health care facilities and landscape characteristics on the outside. A health facility, as a structure dedicated to man's well-being, should provide a peaceful environment for recovery, allowing patients and their families to regain their health.
