A City Gem: Central Park


On a Sunday afternoon, after a tiring work week and exhausting weekend, what my friends and I often opt to do is visit Central Park.  The interesting landmarks and beautiful scenery make it the perfect place for unwinding.

What I find inspiring about Central Park is its serenity among the hustle and bustle of the city.  Even among the crowds that flood the park every weekend, you can still easily create a peaceful retreat for yourself by lying beneath a tree or going for a jog along the many paths. 

A trip to the park never fails to be invigorating.  During my last walk through the park, there was a couple taking a painting lesson, multiple talented musicians singing and playing various instruments, parents playing catch with their kids, and families picnicking among the lawns.  It allows New Yorkers to kick back and be creative by doing activities that aren’t typical to city life. 

It’s truly a gem.
