The city of Sirjan was chosen as the study area, mainly due to its historical background. Besides, the city not only establishes a link between the tourist provinces, but it also owns the potential to attract many motorist tourists as motorists. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the role of urban form and space in attracting tourists to sustainable development in Sirjan via using descriptive-analytic research methodology which is based on library studies and questionnaires and field surveys done in the city. Data were analyzed using inferential statistical tests in SPSS software, and analysis of the urban form and space were conducted space syntax in ArcGIS environment.
