NYU and Washington Square Park

 

NYU New York University 




 

October 3rd was our first full day in New York. After a long and quite draining day of travelling, the city welcomed us with sunshine and a clear sky. It was almost as hot as during the summer in Helsinki, but a cool breeze made the temperature - dare I say - perfect. We started our first day with a private bus tour around the city. One of our stops was Washington Square Park, which is located in Greenwich Village. The park serves as the heart of New York University’s campus. All the other buildings of the campus are set around the premises of the park.  

 

We wandered through the park for a hot minute. It was full of tourists, New Yorkers, and especially students. Some were enjoying their lunch with friends, while others were buried in their books. We even saw a woman in her graduation gown posing for graduation photos with a photographer. The park truly felt like the heart of the campus, it was alive and vibrant. 

 

Unfortunately, we didn’t have the chance to go inside the university buildings as a group. However, visiting the park and soaking up its atmosphere was a wonderful substitute for experiencing the campus and student life first-hand.
