Trip to Sunset Park

Last week my group and I went to visit sunset park for our grand proposal. On our way to Sunset park, Brooklyn we tried to see where we were going to start first. We ended up starting at the furthest place and worked our way through sunset park to our destinations. Our first destination was Greenwood cemetery, this is a historical spot in sunset park that has been there for years. Then we decided to go to the Brooklyn army terminal which is now converted into buildings that contain many stores and companies.

As we were making our way through Sunset park and the avenues changed so did the people. First, we started on 4th and 5th avenue and between 30th and 65th st and it was inhabited by Spanish and Dominicans. As we went up toward 7th and 8th avenue we ended up in whats known as Brooklyn’s “China Towns”. Every store was written in Chinese and as we walked around we saw the variety of different fresh fruits, vegetables and fish they sold.

Before going to Sunset park Dr. Nolan had emailed my group a news article talking about some dumpling spots that are popular in sunset park. My group and I ventured out and went to one of greatly reviewed dumpling spots. As we approached Kai Feng Fu Dumpling House we were hesitant at first because it was a small place on a side block but we went in and the dumplings were delicious!! I really enjoyed venturing out to Sunset park because I was able to see and experience a different neighborhood other than mine.
