A park is
an

natural,
semi-natural

planted
space
set
aside

human
enjoyment
and recreation or

the

parks are green
spaces set
aside
for
recreation
inside
towns
and
cities. National
parks and country
parks are
green

the
countryside. State
parks and provincial
parks are
administered
by
sub-national
government
states
and
agencies.
Parks
may
consist
of
grassy
areas,
rocks,
soil
and
trees,
but

also
contain
buildings
and
other
artifacts
such
as monuments, fountains or playground structures.
Many
parks
have
fields
for
playing
sports
such
as baseball and football,
and
paved
areas
for
games
such
as basketball.
Many
parks
have trails for
walking,
biking
and
other
activities.
Some
parks
are
built
adjacent
to
bodies
of
water
or
watercourses
and
may
comprise
a
beach
or
boat
dock
area.
Urban

may
have
to
follow
restrictions
(e.g.

by
a park
ranger.
