The neighbourhoods and nature

As one walks down the Hill, the relationship man makes with nature changes its form. The Kiptas housing is nestled in intricate network of designed gardens. This Gated community relates to nature as a medium of Leisure/ Pleasure to be consumed. When one walks through the streets of Gulensu-Gulsuyu, one cannot fail to notice vegetables growing in left over pots placed in crevices of two houses. The residents here share a more intimate relationship with nature where it is part of their everyday lives. They almost depend on nature for their survival. While for Cevilzi residents the nature is reduced down to a small planter in their balcony. Dragos Hill is a Hill covered with private Villas. For residents here Nature is more of a Jewel/an ornament with which they decorate their Villa.
