Four Best City Walks in the US
Wisdom Tree Hike in Los Angeles
This is probably the most popular city walk in LA—a journey to the only tree to survive the 2007 Barham fire. The Wisdom Tree is at the top of Burbank Peak, which gives you great views all over Los Angeles.
The walk: Head up Wonder View Drive from Lake Hollywood Drive, and you will reach a gate at the end of the paved area. After you pass through, you'll get to a wide-open area and the trail to the Wisdom Tree is to your right.
SoHo/TriBeCa Walking Tour in New York City
Heading down to SoHo and TriBeCa will give you the feeling of being in another city within NYC. The small side streets hide interesting buildings and unique shops, as well as historic spots.
The walk: Head south from the Broadway-Lafayette Street subway station, and get lost among the art galleries, with a first sweet stop at the Museum of Ice Cream. Next, explore the Prince Street shops, then head east to Greene Street. Here, you can find some of the finest examples of cast-iron architecture in the city.
The Boardwalk Trail in Austin
In Austin, you'll be charmed by art. The Boardwalk Trail aims to build a 7,250-foot walkway filled with works of art and fantastic views of the city. Don't miss the 36 bronze belts designed by artist Ken Little, with country music song lyrics written on each.
The walk: You can access the Boardwalk Trail from several points. The full trail is 10 miles long, where you can enjoy the peaceful waterside views and the skyline of Austin at sunset.
Art Walk in Denver
Denver is a great destination in itself, with lots of cultural attractions, live music and excellent restaurants. The city's Art District on Santa Fe (ADSF) has a delightful 2.7-mile path that leads you to art galleries and excellent food and drink stops.
The walk: From the charming Victorian house where you can admire the violins and guitars handcrafted by artists, make your way north to the Sunken Gardens, then the streets busy with art galleries and shops. Every first Friday of the month, the ADSF puts on an organized Art Walk on Santa Fe Drive. Art lovers have an opportunity to connect and share the experience of immersing (使沉浸) themselves in Denver's art scene.
