parks
Picnic grounds citywide
Parks are public green spaces in urban or suburban areas, set aside for recreation and enjoyment: We took the kids to the park.
National and state parks preserve natural landscapes on a larger scale.
To park is to leave a vehicle stationary: I parked behind the building.
You can also park yourself somewhere, meaning to sit or settle: She parked herself on the couch all afternoon.
