Everyone needs a breather from the chaos of the city sometimes. It can be hard to escape in the city atmosphere, but here is a list of places to go when you need a break from the city life around UC Berkeley!
Whether you’ve never meditated before or meditate daily, drop by the Zen Center for some serious peace and quiet. Come by for their Wednesday Drop-In Meditation or sign up online for one of their many classes!
This is not your typical city park. Located on the edge of the Bay with 90-acres of gorgeous land, Cesar Chavez Park is an amazing place for a romantic stroll, a kite-flying excursion, or a BBQ with friend– all the while catching some mind-blowing views of all three bay bridges, Alcatraz, and Angel Island.
Dolores Park is the epitome of good vibes. It’s the perfect place to bring your speaker, grab a bottle of wine and cheese, and relax with a group of friends while watching the sun set over San Fransisco.
Every Sunday morning, this Thai Temple opens its doors to Berkeley residents for some seriously delicious authentic Thai food! Exchange a few dollars into tokens and make your way to a variety of different lines, where you can choose from vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, as well as soups, desert, and beverages.
Take a day trip to hike alongside some of the tallest tree species on Earth! Be sure to wander through the 6 miles of gorgeous walking trails and breathe out any of your pent-up stress from city life.
