Playgrounds and parks play a significant role in urban design as they provide opportunities for outdoor recreation, social connection, and community events. These spaces serve as important public amenities, as they offer accessible and safe places for children and adults to play, exercise, and relax. In addition, playgrounds and parks can contribute to overall livability and the well-being of urban residents by promoting physical and mental health, reducing stress, and fostering a sense of community. They also have the potential to enhance the aesthetic appeal of cities, create identity and a sense of place, and attract businesses and tourists. Therefore, it is essential to integrate playgrounds and parks into the urban design plan of any city or town.
