I haven't been out for a long time. The weather was nice today, so I chose to take a walk at Oatley Park, which is 4 kilometers from home. It is a natural park located at the foot of hills, with beautiful scenery. Inside the park, there is a castle, a bay, children's play facilities, and a well-preserved natural landscape. The sandy bay at the park has long served as a swimming spot for local residents. Today, a group of elderly swimming enthusiasts are holding a swimming competition here.

Oatley Park is located in the Hurstville community, 23 kilometers from Sydney's city center, and is the largest urban park on the outskirts of Sydney. It was originally called Peakhurst Park and was renamed Oatley Park in March 1922. The park contains a well-preserved natural area.

Sydney's largest free wooden playground! Super large and fully equipped children's facilities, including sand, pulleys, wooden posts, and an 8-meter giant slide! Everything you can imagine is here! The area is quite large—you can spend an entire day here on the weekend.

The facilities here are not only complete but also varied. Big kids, little kids, and even adults can have a great time. There are large and small slides, merry-go-rounds, various kinds of swings, sandpits, seesaws, and even a zip line!

Did you know that there is a castle hidden in Oatley Park? Although it looks quite small, it is built with giant rocks in the dense forest, and together with a flower-lined path, it gives a strong sense of history.

Deep in the park, there is a sandy bay where locals often take walks by the lake.

The sandy bay at Oatley Park has always been used as a swimming spot for local residents, with shower and changing rooms built nearby.

The lake water is clear and sparkling, with few people around, quiet and beautiful.

Strolling by the lake, walking slowly and admiring the scenery, listening to the birds, smelling the flowers, conversing with nature, I felt the gift of nature and embraced a beautiful life.
