What is a pergola, and why would I want one in my backyard?

A pergola is an outdoor structure typically made of posts supporting a crossbeam and open lattice. It's a fantastic way to add a stylish focal point to your yard, providing partial shade and creating an inviting space for relaxation or entertaining. It's also a perfect choice to add extra privacy to your backyard.
