If
you
are
thinking
about
visiting
the
Charles
River
Esplanade
and
you
are
reading
this,
GO!
Here’s
why:
1.
This
is
the
perfect
place
for
a
first
date,
or
a
100th
date.
I
saw
people
sitting
on
benches
holding
each
other
and
others
having
picturesque
picnics.
(Seriously
with
the
basket
and
blanket
and
everything).
Other
activities
include
running,
taking
work
calls,
reading
books,
kids
playing
in
the
playground,
and
relaxing
by
the
water.
(Look
at
my
photos
to
see
what
I’m
talking
about).
2.
If
you
are
on
a
leisurely
walk
it’s
extremely
relaxing.
Something
about
walking
along
the
water
and
watching
life
happen
in
so
many
different
directions
is
humbling.
This
part
of
the
city
separates
you
from
the
city
and
you
feel
as
though
you
are
a
3rd
person
observer
to
it
all.
It
forces
you
to
slow
down
and
be
present.
The
docks
and
benches
invite
you
to
stop
and
watch
a
sailboat
or
the
patterns
in
the
water.
3.
There
are
multiple
access
points
to
get
onto
the
trail.
I
recommend
parking
close
to
one
of
the
many
bridge
and
walking
to
an
access
point.
You
can
easily
find
them
on
google
maps.
I
can
add
a
marked
up
screenshot
in
my
review.
4.
It’s
worth
going.
If
you
are
thinking
about
it
this
is
your
sign.
Just
do
it.
Check
out
my
photos
to
get
a
sense
of
the
space.
