The main problem of defining tall buildings in cities in terms of urban landscape is that this definition does not have an appropriate relativity, and only includes the investigation of tall buildings based on their height. Applying the criteria for locating, architecture and height of tall buildings in cities without considering the mutual impacts of tower and urban landscape and with relying on physical aspects and ignoring environmental impacts of buildings has developed more problems for the appearance of cities. In this study we investigated the factors affect the role of tall buildings on landscape of Tehran city in Iran. In the current study, the dependent variable was the urban landscape of Tehran, and the independent variables were related to the semantic, aesthetic and visual aspects. Accordingly, the hypotheses of this study predict whether there is a relationship between tall buildings and urban landscape based on the semantic, aesthetic and visual aspects. To do so, we selected northern urban views of Tehran. Statistical population consisted of all families living in northern parts of Tehran. Of this, a sample of 168 subjects was selected using Cochran formula. Data collection tool was a 5-point likert type questionnaire. Collected data from participants were analyzed in SPSS software. According to the results, tall buildings of urban landscape of Tehran have a moderate status. From the perspective of people, the strongest effects of such buildings are respectively related to four factors of meaning, scale, view and identity.}, keywords = {Tall Buildings,Urban landscape,Semantic,Visual Impact,Meaning,Tehran City}, title_fa = {Investigating the Effect of Tall Buildings on Tehran City Landscape}, abstract_fa = {Tall buildings despite their different features and impacts are just defined by their height.
