Pelham Bay Park – the largest park in New York City, August 2017, NYC, Bronx, USA



About four months ago I moved into the USA, more specifically to New York City (NYC), which is one the most famous city in the world and the most expensive city in the USA. I feel a bit like starting my life from scratch. I arrived here alone. My friends, parents and my siblings live in Europe. Also, my husband is still in Europe, but he should join me in a couple of months. To feel well here, I need to build friendships. This takes time.
By my photography I want to show you this side of NYC that you might not know and even do not expect. NYC is more than just 8.5 million people, cultural mix, Times Square, Statue of Liberty, rooftop bars, great restaurants, cockroaches, mice and rats, but also the remnants of pure and untouched nature, that you will be able to notice once you slow down and carefully look around.
Currently I live in Manhattan. Last Sunday, firstly I took a subway and then a bus to Bronx to visit Pelham Bay Park. Pelham Bay Park is the largest public park in NYC, and it is more than three times bigger than Central Park (the fifth largest park in NYC). I managed to get familiar only with a small part of the park. I saw people barbecuing and fishing, and some plants and animals ;)
