Classification and specifically typology is a scientific method for a more complete and accurate coverage of various subjects; A process whose result can help to produce and explain concepts in the field of theory and practice. Studying phenomena and concepts in categories that are different from each other, while revealing the differences at different levels, paves the way for the correct understanding of each one. However, if the typology process is not carried out properly and in compliance with its special considerations, it not only loses its efficiency, but also causes fundamental ambiguities that make it more difficult to understand the desired category. Therefore, it is necessary to perform the classification with the correct selection of criteria and necessary tools. Persian garden is one of the most prominent and oldest manifestations of landscaping in the history of human civilization, which is the product of the cultural and historical interaction of man with nature. Persian garden has a fundamental and significant place in Iran in different scales of environmental design such as architecture and urban planning. It is basically a cultural and multi-dimensional phenomenon that is a manifestation of many meanings in its nature. This wonderful phenomenon in the history of art and architecture, despite maintaining its main elements and fundamental concepts, has been designed and implemented in various ways. This has caused a part of the historical studies of the Persian garden to be directed to the knowledge of its types. The persian garden has been classified into different categories and types; These classifications, despite their number and variety, have significant shortcomings and doubts. Considering the importance of knowing the different dimensions of the persian garden, the present research seeks to collect the different classifications and typologies provided by Iranian and non-Iranian researchers and historians, and then due to To examine the specific sensitivities of the typology process and to reveal possible ambiguities, inadequacies and defects. For this purpose, the opinions of the experts were studied and collected in the form of written sources, using the library method, and then analyzed through the process of synthesis. process chosen for synthesis in this research is in accordance with Roberts' six-step model, which has been followed step by step. After examining the classifications as well as analyzing the findings, the results show that the classifications made for the Persian garden are in accordance with the different intellectual paradigms of the experts in indicators such as the criterial approach. The criteria, strategy, studied courses and the number of classes are different. Also, in the primary researches, separation and classification of the Persian garden was done only by providing descriptions about the physical features such as the design and physical structure of the garden, and the attention was focused on the formal aspects and its appearance differences. But with the passage of time in later researches, Persian gardens were classified based on criteria such as outstanding use and their special elements and components, and each type of Iranian garden was given a special name
