The world is rapidly ageing. The problem of aging in Iran population is for various reasons, such as reducing the birthrate, advances in medical science, hygiene, Education, and increasing life expectancy is emerging and is a new phenomenon. This paper aims to evaluate the status of MASHHAD in connection with age -friendly city indicators with emphasis on the spatial -physical indicators (Urban open spaces, Buildings and public religious places, transportation within the city, SAFETY AND EASE OF MOVEMENT). The research method is applied descriptive -survey one. Given the scope of the research field took place in MASHHAD, a questionnaire was used to collect the data. Questionnaire was designed using the criteria proposed by the World Health Organ ization, so its validity is confirmed. Results show that although the indices are not lower than the standard and the conditions are relatively acceptable but just provide the basic needs of the elderly and it could be said that there is a large gap with the ideal situation and the experiences of the other developed countries to become age friendly city and according to the Likert that was the base of comparison in this study none of the indicators had reached to score of 4 or 5 (Maximum Desirability) and at last some recommendations also suggested for improving the current situation.
