#Oxford has plenty of green spaces that you can't walk on as well as few that you can #TRLT A4

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @CharlesMcCool That sounds about right, when I worked in San Francisco & Oakland the companies had staggered lunchtimes to allow employees to be able to get their lunch in a timely manner. #TRLT

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot I kept thinking about gardens and green space for many of the questions. Pushed those all to Q4 😁 #TRLT

replying to @ShebsAlom @ShebsAlom That is what is so great about travel - you never know what each day brings. #TRLT
Q4: What green spaces are available in some of your favourite urban places? via @travelatwill #TRLT The Botanical Gardens in #Lisbon are beautiful - 10 acres of space filled with 10,000 plants, water features and statues.

@HMoat @CharlesMcCool A3 Google or Apple Maps, look around your location with the satellite photos on and look for greenery.
London is full of little parks.

replying to @JLipowski @JLipowski @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 @HeidiSiefkas @pip_says @Touchse @CharlesMcCool I just checked my pics. Lots of great outdoor statues and churches with art but I had no mural type street art from Salzburg. Might have missed it on a busy visit. #TRLT
replying to @HeidiSiefkas @HeidiSiefkas @TravelAtWill A4. If you find yourself in a large Japanese city- castles, shrines, and gardens are a very sure bet on still finding green space. #trlt 🗺: https://t.co/V95NfaIT3G

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @HMoat @HeidiSiefkas We were definitely surprised at how much we found in Philadelphia. The painted garbage trucks were tagged with the city street art initiative. #TRLT
replying to @nolesserpanda @nolesserpanda @tspadventure @HeidiSiefkas @CharlesMcCool Beautiful! I hope to see Glasgow soon, definitely on my post-pandemic travel list. #trlt
replying to @ramblRramblR @ramblRramblR @HeidiSiefkas @TravelAtWill Very true - I adored the garden in and around Japanese temples and shrines. #TRLT

@CaitlinKellyNYC @CharlesMcCool How unfortunate, what spots would you recommend for visitors to NYC, Caitlin?
#TRLT
A4. I love this tiny pocket park & mosaic in Winterset, Iowa / @Travel_Iowa, which is along the Covered Bridges Scenic Byway (yes, THOSE Bridges of Madison County.) The park is a tribute to George Washington Carver, who lived in Winterset for awhile, working in a hotel. #TRLT
replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel Absolutely! Can turn into one of the bests #TRLT
replying to @HMoat @HMoat Surprised and sad we missed the Botanical Gardens in Lisbon. Just one of a long list of reasons to go back. #TRLT
replying to @carornocar @carornocar Antwerp station is one of the best in the world #TRLT
replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @TravelAtWill A4: NYC has Central park and Prospect Park; I love Primrose Hill in London (great views!); the Mountain in Montreal (I flew kites there as a kid) and of course Stanley Park in Vancouver. #TRLT
replying to @CharlesMcCool
@CharlesMcCool @TheTravelCamel @FunInFairfax @Nicolette_O @JLipowski @Touchse @pip_says @LindaPeters64 @HeidiSiefkas Maybe the modern equivalent is to use the city bike share, but take the bike just to the edge of wherever the hire stations stop.
Again, this depends on coverage, so it might get you some lovely places or some horrid bland suburbs :)
