Just behind the New York Public Library is Bryant Park, filled with pretty flower beds, gravel paths, a stylish indoor-outdoor restaurant, and lots of benches that are usually packed with office workers at lunchtime.
The park is named after poet and journalist William Cullen Bryant, a great proponent of parks and one of the people most responsible for the creation of Central Park.
Outdoor movies in the summer, free evening open air concerts in spring and fall, and scenic winter market filled with holiday stalls and ice skating rink make this a nice little four season escape.
