Abstract Urban places are thought to be extremely socially effervescent, polarizing individuals; as a result, urban design ideas must be tailored to these characteristics. The primary goal of this research was to identify the design principles of night spaces throughout the last decade, as well as the most important indexes that alter or revitalize these spaces and boost night tourism. Suitable infrastructure, which should be considered in the night spaces, has been provided based on the indexes of urban design principles on islamic Cities night spaces. In order to achieve this goal, a descriptive-analytical research method was used, which included Delphi methodologies, cluster analysis, and Jencks' theory, among other quantitative and qualitative techniques. The study demonstrates 13 important concepts in urban physical design that have an impact on the economic, social, tourism, and cultural indexes of urban night areas in four dimensions. The presence index was the one with the highest score (83/35) among the others. To achieve the goal of developing 24-hour cities, activities such as book sales, take-out food, and shopping should be addressed. With the research area of Basij Boulevard in Eslamshar in Tehran, these findings may provide ideas to underpin a conceptual framework for creating venues for night tourism in the cultural context of Iranian cities.
