November 13, Alsu Safina). Today, parks are not just a recreation area but also
the best fitness center. Ilsur Metshin gave such an assessment to the
improvement of city parks and public spaces today on the Business Monday.
“It’s
pleasing when you meet a large number of Kazan citizens of different ages in
the morning, afternoon, and evening. People are more and more engaged in active
sports in parks. There is a request from our elder citizens to Scandinavian
walking, which is gaining in popularity”, he said.
The Mayor
instructed the chairman of the Committee for External Improvement, the heads of
districts’ administrations, and the Directorate of Parks and Squares to
consider this wish of the participants of the city social project for the
pensioners “Zhiznelub”. “Let's provide such opportunities in our parks”,
concluded the head of the city.
