Description
A park is an area of open space provided for recreational use. It can be in its natural or semi-natural state, or planted, and is set aside for human enjoyment or for the protection of wildlife or natural habitats. It may consist of rocks, soil, water, flora and fauna and grass areas, but may also contain buildings and other artifacts such as play grounds. Many natural parks are protected by law.
Park design is influenced by the intended purpose and audience, as well as by the available land features. A park intended to provide recreation for children may include a playground. A park primarily intended for adults may feature walking paths and decorative landscaping. Specific features, such as riding trails, may be included to support specific activities.
The design of a park may determine who is willing to use it. Walkers may feel unsafe on a mixed-use path that is dominated by fast-moving cyclists or horses. Open parks with no subdivided or separated spaces tend to be avoided by older schoolgirls or less aggressive children, because there is little opportunity for them to escape more aggressive children without leaving the park entirely.[1] A park that offers multiple separated play areas is used equally by boys and girls.

I remembered running around a park similar to this one when I visited my sister in Vancouver and it wasn't sunny but just beginning of spring. Although it's a bit dark, but beauty shines in this! f/v
