Picnic at Gorky Park
With the gentle breeze of September and the colourful autumn leaves in the trees, experience a chill date in Moscow's Gorky Park. Enjoy a romantic picnic, talk about everything you love, and soak up the autumn sun.
- Pack some homemade sandwiches and fresh fruits in a basket, grab a comfortable blanket and head over to Gorky Park. Choose a spot under a tree with a perfect view of the river or nearby the charming little pond. Enjoy the beautiful colors of autumn while savouring the delicious food and each other's company.
- Take a leisurely walk around the park, stopping to appreciate landmarks and scenic views. You can also engage in some outdoor games like badminton or frisbee to make the date a bit more dynamic. As the sun starts to set, take the moment to be present with your partner, watching the beautiful warm colors reflecting on the river.
- Wrap up your date with a cup of warm coffee or tea from one of the park's economical eateries. This date idea is perfect for couples who want to indulge in quality time with each other without breaking the bank.
Preparation steps:
- The most important part of a picnic is the food. Make sure to prepare some sandwiches, salads, or any of your favorite foods that can be easily packed. Don't forget fruits and some dessert as well.
- Check the weather forecast in advance to ensure it will be a pleasant day outdoors. Since it can get a bit chilly in September, bring a blanket to sit on and an extra one to keep you warm.
- Depending on your preferences, bring some outdoor games like badminton or frisbee to add some fun and active elements to your date. Optionally, you might want to bring a camera to capture the moments and a portable speaker to listen to your favorite music.
Some tips:
- Gorky Park is one of the most popular parks in Moscow, so it may be busy during weekends. If you prefer a quieter setting, try going on a weekday. The park has many picturesque spots perfect for a picnic.
- Don't forget to bring a trash bag to pick up all your leftovers and maintain the beauty of the park.
- While Gorky Park is generally safe, it's always good to be alert and keep your belongings in sight. Keep the picnic area simple to avoid drawing too much attention.
