park bench
Outdoor sitting spot
A park bench is a long seat, typically made of wood or metal slats, placed in public parks and other outdoor spaces for people to sit on.
Park benches accommodate two or more people and are designed to withstand weather.
They appear frequently in films and literature as settings for chance encounters, quiet reflection, or feeding pigeons: We sat on a park bench and watched the sunset.
