Children who are going to be the next generation that will be the citizens in today’s cities and cities in the future are going to live in the majority of the villages that have transformed into very big cities in Indonesia. These cities, with all their complex problems, require their citizens to appreciate as well as interact nicely with them and their communities. Therefore, it is very significant to groom the new generation that knows the green cities’ social behavior. The aims of this research are as follows: First, to describe the level of comprehension of the awareness of cultural behavior as the necessary behavior required to reside in the cities to build the great communities; Second, to organize the typical guidance for the child education on cultural behavior to green cities. The methodology employed in this research is the descriptive quantitative design together with tendency test that compares the mean or average of the research result as well as the ideal mean. The study was carried out in Surabaya, Indonesia. The result of the study indicated that the understanding level of cultural behavior revealed a reasonably good standard for all the four categories and a good level for the entire research. Reasonably good level implies that the understanding level is fair and needs to be improved to make it conform to the Surabaya development shortly. Thus, it is essential to develop guidance for children for cultural behavior education toward creating green cities.
The city is a living entity, especially about any urban form; however, the quality of the city would refer to physical qualities. Urban design and spatial planning of the city are good on one hand, and the cultural essence fortified on the other hand. It is important to encourage the strengthening of social capital. Indeed, it is about quality of the city to accommodate quality of life of its citizens. The structure of the physical environment within the city is formed by structural elements (artificial) which cover all elements such as buildings, and various other technical infrastructures connected differently from each other.This study was carried in Surabaya and Bandung metropolitan city and Surakarta city in Indonesia. This study aims to give a description of urban form quality of each city; the perception of citizens of their own city, then gives the reciprocal of capital, social value, the sense toward urban form and space, which shown in their daily activity.The results show that Bandung and Surakarta have urban form quality in the “low” level, meanwhile Surabaya has the “high” level. Surabaya with “high” level physical quality has correlation with “high” level of their citizen perception. But somehow, in Bandung and Surakarta this physical quality level has different level perception of their citizen as the image of the city. The perception of Bandung City Image by 43 social communities has mentioned that Bandung has “high” level. This perception also shown in 40 social communities in Surakarta, that its city image has “high” level.
