Advantages: Nice to rest up

Disadvantages: Vandalism

Most towns and cities are blessed with pars i some form or other so I thought I would write about a couple of my favourite ones. Abingdon Park in Northampton is my favourite in my home town, a nice large tree lined park close to the town centre it has some lovely large oak trees withing its grounds and is a nice place to relax on a summers day, thre are plenty of shops near by the pick up drinks and it is also nice to cycle through, it has some nice large grass areas for kids to play as well as a play area. The only downside is that it has been victim to a bit of vandalism in the past and is probably not somewhere I would go at night as there are blokes cruising and the odd group of hoodies.

Hyde Park in London is one of my favourites in the city as it is a wonderful green expanse that is big enough to host concerts and special events, I also like Green Park to relax in which is a lot smaller but is close to a lot of the shopping just off Regents Street and Oxford Circus.

I think that we are very lucky in this country to have so many green areas in our towns and cities and these places provide an oasis of calm in an otherwise hectic existence.
