Summer garden in the evening

The summer garden is one of the business cards of the city. It is located almost in the center on the banks of the Neva River. In my youth, I loved coming here and spending time here. However, the garden was "restored". Various kinds of work were carried out in it and the garden changed.

I've only been there once since and I didn't like it. I used to feel some kind of breadth, spaciousness, peace there. Old lime trees and maples, leaves underfoot in late autumn. I was pleased.

Now they have appeared...fences. Rows of young lime trees are planted and they create narrow corridors. I don't like any fences, even made of trees, and there's also a grid added...

However, several fountains appeared at once. It's beautiful, but I don't want to go there like before. This time we were just nearby and decided to come in anyway.

It was already evening and the garden was sinking into deep shadow. The people rested as best they could and only the statues continued to wonder about what was happening at this time. They didn't really understand modern life.

And the setting sun gave the last soft rays to the garden. It was a very pleasant warm light. The last natural light of the day.

Я с вами полностью согласна!
Облагораживание часто имеет обратный результат.
Но, я думаю, что не все это понимают.
Скорее всего они не чувствуют красоту дикой природы.
В естестве вся красота!

Здравствуйте, я полностью согласен. Нечто подобное произошло с красивым и величественным саманом недалеко от Валенсии, столицы моего государства. Я имел удовольствие узнать его таким, каким оно было посреди леса, оно было похоже на дерево из сказок.
Когда он вернулся много лет спустя, мы обнаружили, что они обрезали его и окружили бетонным основанием, а на нем поставили алтарь. Это было большое разочарование, я надеюсь, что оно выздоровеет и обретет прежнюю яркость, это очень старое и красивое дерево.

It's bad when people don't understand what they're doing

Я бы не сказал, что там была дикая природа))
Но это был САД взрослых деревьев, были широкие тенистые аллеи, это было благодатное место.
Сейчас... даже не знаю что сказать :)

Dear @bambuka, sorry to jump in a bit off topic but may I ask you to support the HiveBuzz proposal?
It recently lost its funding, is struggling to get back above the HBD stabilizer proposal, and is in dire need of help.
You can support it on Peakd, Ecency, Hive.blog or using HiveSigner.

On behalf of The HiveBuzz team, thank you!
