being obese.

BRINGING THE COUNTRYSIDE INTO THE CITY CENTRE
Most people in the world live in cities. But city life isn’t always great – it’s often too hot to spend time
outside in the summer, there’s pollution from traffic and there are signs everywhere saying that people can’t ride
skateboards or bikes. However, green spaces can bring the countryside into city centres and really make
people’s lives better.
I played in my local park as a child, but I never thought about how important it was to me. Then, at
sixteen, my uncle invited me to stay with him in Valencia during the school holidays and took me to the Jardín
del Turia. This amazing park is over seven kilometres long and until 1986 it was just empty land after the river
flooded the whole city. It now has space for walking, social areas for chatting and even a playground for kids.
You don’t have to pay to use it, so everyone can enjoy it. People who live nearby are healthier and happier and
love their city park.
I started reading about other exciting green spaces and found the High Line in New York. This was an old
railway line, ten metres above the city, and is now a colourful park with flowers and wild areas, and amazing
views over the city. The city government was worried it would be expensive to build and no one would use it.
However, it was popular from day one. As well as New Yorkers, it attracts thousands of tourists, and the money
they spend in the city more than pays for it. Local people work with city gardeners to keep it tidy.
The Underpass Park in Toronto is on land under road bridges, which was covered in rubbish before. You
don’t see it as you drive past, so it’s a special, secret place. It’s also peaceful, as you can’t hear the traffic above.

doesn’t have much natural light, but mirrors on the ‘walls’ solve this problem. Mainly teenagers use it, and
because they feel it’s theirs, they know they must keep it clean and they mustn’t leave rubbish.
