Two peaceful, outdoor resting spots at the New York State Fair require you to go indoors to get there.
The underappreciated Horticulture Building courtyards are walled in on all sides while open air beckons above like skylights.
Trees and shrubbery provide beauty and shade, while benches and retaining walls provide seating, making it a perfect place to rest and snack on treats from nearby food vendors.
The Bob Case Memorial Garden and its twin courtyard flank the center space of the 53,000-suqare-foot Hort, large doors open to allow access.
The courtyards are among the special Fair retreats, known to many regulars visitors, but unnoticed by others.
