Quantitative studies have shown that the duration of the relationship is considered an important variable in the development of place attachment. However, the study of place attachment and the meaning of this attachment do not provide us much information. The present study was conducted to explain the relationship between time and place attachment in two groups including travelers and natives who were presented in Javaherdeh region of Ramsar. The results showed that the duration of the relationship plays an important role in the process that connects people with place and finally, there are different ways in which the time is effective in the formation of meanings in a place. Keywords: place attachment, time, Javaherdeh region of Ramsar INTRODUCTIONDifferent concepts of attachment between people and places are presented and studied. Among the most common are concepts of place attachment and sense of place (SOP). What can be seen in the latest systematic studies regarding the attachment to a place is dealing with the importance of time in a place (that is, the duration of the relationship with a place). Since both authors and researchers (Lu and Altman, 1992;Moore and Graefe, 1994; Ralph, 1976; Tuan, 1977) believed that time and experience in a place are important factors in deepening the meanings and emotional ties needed in relationship between human and space, few depth investigations have studied these factors and their role in shaping this relationship. Therefore, this study attempts to provide a deeper understanding of the impact of "time variable" on the relationship between the visitors and local people at Javaherdeh region of Ramsar.
