Russian Parks: Neighborhood Parks and Play Areas


Figure 1--Here we see Russian children playing in a neighnorhood park or play area, primarily in the 1970s. We are not sure about the caps they are wearing. They may be Pionner or Red Army caps. The children are all around a sand box.

Throughout Russia are countless small parkls and neigborhood play areas. These were important because unlike America, fe Russians lived in single family dwellings and there was no move to the sunburbs. Thus tyhere were no bckyards for childen to play in around the hime. People lived in cramped, multi-story apartment complexes. Here we see children playing in one such beighborhood play area, probably in the 1970s. We have no idea, however, where it is located.
