Gazebo

A Gazebo is a freestanding, open-sided structure often found in gardens, parks, and public spaces, used as a shelter, bandstand, or decorative feature in a landscape. Gazebos are typically octagonal or round in shape but can come in various styles, sizes, and materials, including wood, metal, or vinyl. 

They may feature a solid roof, supported by columns or pillars, and sometimes include built-in seating along the interior perimeter. Gazebos provide a shaded, sheltered space for outdoor relaxation and entertainment, offering an attractive focal point that enhances the aesthetic appeal of their surroundings. Historically, gazebos have been used as pavilions, tea houses, or summerhouses, and they continue to be popular features in garden design, serving as tranquil retreats and venues for social gatherings, ceremonies, and public events.
