Secret Gardens of New York

Green Hideaways in the Heart of the City

Millions of people visit New York every year, but many of them miss the real gems of the city: the many gardens, parks and squares. Everyone knows the key tourist spots to visit, but who doesn’t want a tranquil hideaway, tucked away from the hustle and bustle, to have a coffee break and really enjoy the city like a local?

From large resplendent parks, perfect for a springtime stroll, to small squares where you can enjoy your coffee at leisure, this is for anyone hoping to travel to New York or simply looking for a little escapism.

Written by garden expert and New York local Marie Viljoen, this new look at New York will delight tourists and locals alike.
