kuala lumpur has the lake gardens. so does seremban. and taiping. new york has central park, london - hyde park to name a few.
sungai petani has the jubilee park. tanjong has kebun bunga.
esfahan has one of the world's best gardens. Islamic concept. like those superb gardens in the Alhambra.
these are the green lungs that give cities and towns a measure of equilibrium. man made concrete forests cooled by the wonders of nature. of the role of flora and all the elements. water. grass. birds. wind. sunlight. moonlight. rain. snow. butterflies. trees and plenty of trees of course.
parks no matter how big or small add that special richness to places. softening the harshness, anonymity and unfriendliness of towering blocks of concrete, steel and glass. of unending roads. carbon monoxide. noise. heat. madness.
the greens add a touch of feeling to a city. a garden, a park. it is an oasis that attracts man and animals alike. it is a balm to the nerves and tired minds. it is an elixir.
it is paradise on earth.
