Cleveland's Metroparks system spans more than 23,000 acres throughout the city's greater urban region, commonly referred to as the "Emerald Necklace" for its network of connecting park reservations that encircle the city's town center. The park district's reservations offer a wide variety of visitor amenities, including nature preserves, fishing rivers and lakes, and visitor amenities such as golf courses, restaurants, and nature center museums.
