Parks in Toronto

Toronto is green and encourages green. The city has so many parks maintained by the city itself or by the province. Some are big and some are small. In summer, children frolic in the green meadows, under the shades of the trees and under the heat of the summer sun. Dogs play and walk with their friends and adults read on benches or just watch people as they go by. There are various activities in many of the parks: outdoor theater, pics, fitness programs, etc...

In winter, some of these places are turned into venues to play winter sports.
