Flush­ing Mead­ows Coro­na Park

About

Flush­ing Mead­ows Coro­na Park in Queens was a wel­come sur­prise - a true es­cape from the city buzz. Strolling along the wa­ter's edge, we found our­selves cap­ti­vat­ed by wil­lows reach­ing for the sky, their grace­ful forms re­flect­ed in the wa­ter amongst vi­brant lilies. The park's cen­ter­piece, the Uni­sphere, stands as a pow­er­ful sym­bol of hu­man am­bi­tion, its sheer size leav­ing a last­ing

im­pres­sion. But the park also of­fers op­por­tu­ni­ties for those seek­ing a more dy­nam­ic ex­pe­ri­ence. Take in a Mets game at Citi Field or wit­ness in­cred­i­ble ten­nis at the USTA Bil­lie Jean King Na­tion­al Ten­nis Cen­ter for a dose of ex­hil­a­rat­ing sport­ing en­ter­tain­ment. Whether you're search­ing for peace­ful con­tem­pla­tion or thrilling ac­tiv­i­ty, this park pro­vides a re­fresh­ing respite from the city's re­lent­less en­er­gy.
