À propos
Faits rapides: Plus de 2 millions de personnes visitent chaque année l'arc de Washington Square de 8 mètres, inspiré de l'Arc de Triomphe de Paris. Les artistes et musiciens de rue créent une ambiance animée qui reflète l'esprit créatif de New York.
Points forts: Repérez la célèbre fontaine où les musiciens de rue se rassemblent presque tous les jours, créant une bande sonore en constante évolution. Le parc sert aussi de lieu pour des parties spontanées d'échecs avec des dizaines de tables en béton occupées par des joueurs de tous âges.
Conseils d'initiés
- Wear comfortable shoes; the park has plenty of paths for walking.
- The fountain area provides great photo opportunities of performers and park life.
- Avoid weekend afternoons if you prefer less crowded spaces.
- Check local boards for special events or open-air performances during your visit.
