Urban National Parks

Urban National Parks are protected natural areas located within or near cities, offering city residents access to scenic landscapes, wildlife, and outdoor recreation. They preserve important ecosystems and cultural sites while providing educational, cultural, and leisure opportunities that connect urban communities with nature. These parks balance conservation with urban living, making natural experiences more accessible and promoting environmental awareness among diverse populations. They serve as vital green spaces that enhance quality of life, support biodiversity, and foster a sense of community rooted in natural and cultural heritage.
