From Sefton Park to Birkenhead Park, Merseyside is blessed with many famous public parks and beautiful open spaces.
From the quiet gardens you can escape to for a bit of head space to the huge public spaces that play host to fun runs, firework displays and musical festivals, we really are spoilt for choice.
