Izvleček: | The present research identified the restorativepotential and qualities (fascination, being away, compatibility,coherence, and scope) of thirteen settings in Guanajuatocity, Mexico, divided into three categories (worship temples,historic sites, and squares and alleys). Through accidental non-probabilistic sampling, 69 people participated responding on-site to a mobile-adapted version of the Environmental PerceivedRestorative Scale to identify the restorative potential and therestorative qualities of each setting. It was found that theworship temples were evaluated as more restorative than thehistorical places and the squares and alleys, being the secondmost restorative than the squares and alleys. The qualities offascination and reach were the ones with the greatest impactin worship temples and historical places, while coherenceand compatibility were in the squares and alleys. Limitationsincluded the lack of uniformity in participants’ gender and thesmall sample size. The study’s relevance to restorative qualitiesin built environments and their psychoenvironmental benefits is discussed.
