Public space is where everyone is equal. Commonly, Public space in Phnom Penh is known as park or garden. Recently, Green parks or gardens are increasing in popularity that can be enjoyed by all ages as it provides a spot for people to gather and socialize. Park has played an important role to bring people together playing sports, doing exercise, walking and playing around safely or simply hanging out talking to friends.
