public park
Open municipal grounds
A public park is an outdoor space maintained by a government for recreation and leisure.
Parks range from small urban squares with benches to vast natural preserves with trails and wildlife.
They typically offer green space, playgrounds, or athletic facilities free to all: We walked the dog in the public park.
The phrase distinguishes government-owned parks from private ones.
