Comparative solitude close to the craziness of the Great Lawn. And turtles.

If you can't get enough of the turtle in the big pond, there are more here. How can you not like a turtle?

A good place to get away from It All, without really leaving It All. Turtle-watching at Turtle Pond is relaxing and will bring out the "wildlife biologist" in anyone.

Sit on the rocks and see how many turtles you can count.

Bring some bread to feed the turtles... there are hundreds of them in the pond!

Grab a hot dog from the cart then park your ass on the grass & take a well-deserved snooze. The end! #turtsbonus

A place for cultural riturals and folk dances and musical performances this focal promenade is an offering to quietude and festivity.

Scope out a spot under a tree. Don't forget a frisbee!

Cómo dejar de ir, los Hot dog recomendables sentados en el pasto y con la vista de grandes edificios.
