Popis: This research has been carried out to analyze priorities of ecotourism attractiveness quantitatively, at the examples of an urban forest, a historical area with prominent cultural values, and wildlife conservation areas. Historical Site of Gellipoli War, Wildlife Improvement Area at Çilingoz and Urban forest at Sultangazi were selected as research areas. In this direction, Ranking, Rating and Pairwise Comparison Techniques which are multi criteria decision methods have been utilized. As a result of the study, it has been found that the priority and importance values of ecotourism attractiveness are different in national parks, urban forests and wildlife development areas. In addition, the priority values of ecotourism attractiveness can vary according to the applied technique both in terms of order and importance. As a result, it is not possible to accept the same priority or importance for any ecotourism atractiveness in any places because of different status, organizational purpose and local characteristics and it doesn't adopt computed priorities for other areas.
