parks and gardens
Urban nature retreats
Parks and gardens are public or private outdoor spaces designed for recreation, beauty, or cultivation.
The phrase typically refers to a municipal department or authority responsible for maintaining such spaces: The city's parks and gardens division handles tree trimming and landscaping.
It can also describe the collective green spaces of an area: London is known for its parks and gardens.
