Ground Zero is the place of mourning and commemoration for many of the victims’ relatives and a tribute service takes place at the scene of the attacks where the names of those who passed away will be read.

      The places where the twin towers once stood are marked by “The Tributes In Light”, a light monument created by 88 lights that are beamed into the night sky. This light monument can be seen up to a distance of 100 kilometers. All in all, it is a sad day in an otherwise lively and vibrant city.

      The Armory Show in NYC is a prestigious annual art show that showcases contemporary and modern art. Founded in 1913, the event has been held at various locations over the years but now takes place annually at The Jarvis Center. The exhibition features more than 270 galleries from all over the world and presents an impressive variety of painting styles.

      While the origins of The Armory Show can be traced back to 1913, the current show wasn’t established until 1994. At this time, four art dealers in New York City wanted to grab the world’s attention and support their artists with a new art fair. The result of their hard work was a beautiful moment that captured the world and put New York City on the map for its fantastic art. While there have been a ton of changes over the years, the one thing that remains the same is The Armory Show’s mission to provide an art fair where collectors, curators, and museum directors can come together with galleries from all over the world.

The Great Lawn is a large, green space and is a wonderful spot to relax and have a picnic in the park after a long walk. For the athletes among you, there are even some baseball fields on the green, oval area. You’ll find the Great Lawn in the middle of the park at the 79th to 86th street level.

      Another picnic option is East Green. Here you can sit on a blanket between the trees and enjoy your meal. The East Green is located on 5th Avenue between 69th and 72nd Street.

      The most romantic picnic spot in Central Park is definitely Cherry Hill by the Bow Bridge. It has been the backdrop for many Hollywood movies, such as You’ve got Mail. You can make yourself comfortable on a small slope and enjoy the beautiful view of the lake and the bridge. The bridge is located in the middle of the park around 72nd Street.

      The green terrace in the middle of Manhattan is a great experience in fine weather. The decommissioned freight rail track was once overgrown completely as it fell out of use. Based on the plants that grew there, a park was built in homage to the interesting plants that flourish in the city.

      Walk from the Meatpacking District (Gansevoort Street) on the High Line towards Uptown and enjoy the beautiful spring weather. Since 2014,  Manhattan has been enjoying this highlight and attracts countless visitors every day. There are many lovely cafés, galleries and great bars – and with Gallow Green one of my favorite rooftop bars in the city.

      My tip: These are the best spots along the High Line for me.
