Parc Jarry

Parc Jarry is in the very heart of the city, in the quartier where I live called Villeray. It's outside the busy downtown area up on the island, it's large (35 ha) and so bright and sunny. It has several parts: the pond, the stadium, park greens and a playground for children.

In one corner of the park area there is a pond with a little island, surrounded by little mounds which are clearly popular for sunbathers and people who just want to chill (now that I think about it there is something to sitting on a slope and looking around - #RiegerovySady). Building the little mounds around the lake was a brilliant idea as it separates this part from the rest of the park, it creates a sort of intimate space and many smaller spaces in between the mounds, under the pine trees etc. One of these little hills is about ten meters above the neighbouring ground and functions as a viewing platform. There are benches and picnic tables and it is hard to find a space to sit if you come on a sunny day.

The greens are awesome for just being out in the open. Dozens of families and groups of friends having barbecues, play frisbee or racquet or bat games, throw football, jog, cycle or run and so on. There are tens of playgrounds for different sports. I counted the following sports: basketball, beach volleyball, tennis, baseball, football (soccer), cricket, table tennis, pétanque, slackline (that's a sport, right?), there is a skate park and even three swimming pools.

There are many tennis courts around the Stad IGA, whose Court central can hold up to 12,000 people. I have never been to a proper tennis match and could never afford Wimbledon and I am thinking I should try to watch a game here some day (somewhere from the back I guess).

Parc Jarry is great for children - at least judging by the hundreds I have seen. They are basically everywhere but one corner is designed specially for families with children, with a shallow yet quite big swimming pool just for kids. Well, and there are swings, sand pits and all these things around.

Oh, once again, it's so wonderful how the city changes - completely. With a couple of friends we wanted to throw a picnic in the Old Port but now I am thinking we can actually have a proper BBQ in Parc Jarry. If we are lucky with the weather. I have to put two things on my to buy list: pétanque balls and a barbecue set.
