It's so nice in spring! Lots of sunshine, lots of warmth, lots of fresh air. The trees are dressed in their green outfits and everything around them is in bloom. It's a good time to go for a walk in the park.
I decided to go for a walk in the Central Park of Culture and Recreation on this sunny spring day. Central Park is located on one of the large islands in the Neva River delta. To get to the park, you have to cross a bridge. The landscape feature of this island is as if it were assembled of several islands, separated by narrow channels, ducts and ponds. It would probably be more accurate to say that the park is located not on an island, but on islands. As I walked through the park, I crossed the small bridges many times to cross the waterways.
I entered the park and walked forward along one of the main alleys. I approached one of the inner bridges, as I had done many times before, and was about to cross it. But then I thought: Why am I taking the familiar route again? Yes, I know it's a very beautiful path, but wouldn't it be better to try to take the narrow path that turns right, for the sake of variety and a new experience?
That's exactly what I did, and it was a great decision. Central Park is very popular and you rarely get to be alone with nature in the park. But as I turned down a narrow path, I found myself in a part of the park that had no other visitors.
I walked along the bank of one of the streams, watching the waking nature and listening to the birds sing. Only once a cyclist overtook me, but that was when I was approaching the park's wide side alley.
There is a wide paved path along the perimeter of the island along the Middle Neva River, which is what attracted many cyclists. I walked up to the Music Pavilion. The pavilion consists of two rooms that are connected by an open half-rotunda. I really like the architecture of the pavilion.
But as much as I like this pavilion, I walked over to the flowerbeds first.
The Music Pavilion building feels light and airy. It was built in the beginning of the 19th century and was used for concerts. But later the pavilion has been rebuilt several times for other purposes, and has become far from as beautiful. We can admire the classic forms of the pavilion again, thanks to the work of restorers. Old blueprints, plans and drawings were studied. A new architectural design was then drawn up, and the appearance of the pavilion was restored during a major restoration.
Not far from the pavilion there is a bridge that leads to another large island. I purposely photographed this bridge at the end of the walk to see how much longer it is than the inner park bridges and how much wider the Middle Nevka River is than the small inner channels.

I love to go for a walk along the Neva River which also has a large park with many little bridges to cross. The flowers are beautiful. I woke up very sick @tatdt with a hell of a flu and a high fever. I could hardly get out of bed, but I made an effort to go for a walk. I have a mango, ginger and orange smoothie next to me.
Have a nice day, and thanks ;)
PS. I'm afraid to walk alone in desolate places.

Thank you! I hope this smoothie has helped you. We think ginger and oranges are good for colds. I don't know about mangoes, it's hard to get ripe mangoes here. How are you feeling now? May the flu go away quickly! Be well!
Haha I'm not getting well, but I guess this will last for a while and then it will go away. Thanks for your concern.
🥵😬
Wow what beautiful pictures, thank you for sharing this wonderful place with us ❤️
Thank you very much!
May is the best month in St. Petersburg, isn't it? 🙂
Love this blooming! 🙂
Yes, I think so too! Thanks:)
