Top parks: Stadtpark, Prater, Volksgarten, Lainzer Tiergarten
Weiner Prater: Home to the Riesenrad, a late 19th-century Ferris wheel, the Weiner Prater is a sprawling green oasis in the heart of Vienna. Ample public parkland contributes to the Austrian capital's famously high quality of life rankings.

Top parks: Lizhi Park, Honghu Park, People's Park, Lianhuashan Park

Dubai
Population: 3.14 million
Percentage of public green space: 2 percent
Top parks: Zabeel Park, Safa Park, Al Mamzar Park, Al Barsha Pond Park

2.
Istanbul
Population: 15 million
Percentage of public green space: 2.2 percent
Top parks: Gülhane Park, Emirgan Park, Bebek Park, Yıldız Park
Gülhane Park: To many visitors, Istanbul may appear to brim with beautiful, lushly planted parks such as Gülhane Park, one of the city's oldest. But for its size, the Turkish city is actually green space-starved.
3.
Mumbai
Population: 18 million
Percentage of public green space: 2.5 percent
Top parks: Nirvana Park, Sanjay Gandhi National Park, Central Park of Khargar, Hanging Gardens
Hanging Gardens: India's largest city is home to a handful of tranquil and well-trafficked public parks, including the Hanging Gardens. Still, designated green space is scarce in intensely jam-packed Mumbai.

Shanghai
Population: 24.18 million
Percentage of public green space: 2.8 percent
Top parks: Zhongshan Park, Century Park, People's Park, Fuxing Park
People's Park: Shanghai has numerous very large and very lovely swaths of public green space including People's Park. But in this chaotic and impossibly dense concrete jungle, open parkland is still relatively meager.
5.
Taipei
Population: 2.67 million
Percentage of public green space: 3.6 percent
Top parks: Daan Forest Park, Xinsheng Park, Rongxing Garden Park, 2/28 Memorial Park
Daan Forest Park: Taipei is another major Asian city that, on paper, appears to have ample public green space, where Daan Forest Park. is the 'green lungs' of the city. However, considering its size, it could do with a lot more.
