What is the difference between " landscape" and "scenery/sight"?

Is it that landscape and " scenery/sight" is the same meaning?

I still think that landscape and terrain is synonym. Is it correct?

Thanks

If you ask me, 'What is the landscape like in Southern Ontario?', I might answer 'It's beautiful. Right now, in the Spring, everything is green and lush'.

If you live in the city or the suburbs, "landscape" is usually a verb or adjective, rather than a noun. The guy who mows your lawn is a landscape gardener, and the home improvement store offers deals on plants, shrubs, trees, and edging materials with which you can landscape your house.
