🌳 Why are parks so important today?
They are places where we can escape the hustle and bustle of city life. Places for meeting friends, exercising, enjoying culture, or simply finding a moment of peace in nature. 🌿
At a time when cities are facing rising temperatures, increasing urbanisation, and growing populations, parks are more important than ever.
💚 They help cool urban environments.
💚 They provide space for relaxation and well-being.
💚 They bring people together and create vibrant public spaces.
💚 They help preserve cultural and natural heritage.
💚 They contribute to sustainable tourism.
This is why partners from Slovakia and Austria are working together to protect and develop exceptional parks across the cross-border region.
During our recent visit, we had the opportunity to explore the beautiful park in Stupava, which, together with the parks in Schönbrunn and Eisenstadt, demonstrates the vital role that green spaces play in the future of our cities.
If you are looking for a place to relax, take a walk, or find inspiration, these parks are definitely worth a visit. 🌳✨
The project “Parks fit for our cross-border future” supports the preservation of cultural heritage, promotes sustainable tourism, and develops solutions to prepare our parks for the challenges of the future.
