No pics, just the advertisement, but we have a lot of pergolas where I live. Didn't know that's what they were. I just thought 'shaded walkway!' - doremi287, May 14, 2010

Answer 1

Here (in Australia) a "pérgola"/"pergola" is like an "outside" room, usually covered, there would perhaps be a bar-be-que, outdoor furniture or sometimes a spa. A very useful place in a hot climate.

Thank you in Australia! - doremi287, May 14, 2010
