The aim of the article is to present the possibilities of using urban green spaces for the purposes of nature-based tourism. Given the diversity of this specific form of tourism and urban green infrastructure, it is possible to prepare and provide a wide range of services in this area. The article is also an attempt to systematize the theoretical basis of nature-based tourism, the concept of sustainable cities and the role of green infrastructure in the public urban space and for the local community and tourists. The author provides a description of the most interesting objects and areas for people interested in nature-based tourism, arguing that the city, particularly metropolitan areas, can be attractive from the point of view of nature-based tourism.
