Thanks to the existence of natural gifts and historical background, our country has a high potential for tourism, among which one of the most attractive is the city of Sari as the capital of Mazandaran province with a moderate Caspian climate. The city of Sari is full of natural attractions, It has been cultural, economic, social and sports, but unfortunately, tourism and tourist activities in this area have not grown as much as it deserves. This research aims to achieve regional balance and balance in this province and improve the capabilities of Sari city by guiding the development and utilization of the available resources in the region, the most obvious of which are tourism resources in Mazandaran province and Sari city.
