The picturesque crescent in the historic district featured charming row houses adorned with colorful flower gardens.
Our hotel was nestled at the end of a tranquil crescent, shielded from the noise of the bustling city center.
As we strolled along the crescent, we passed by quaint cafes and boutique shops housed in beautifully restored buildings.
What is a "crescent"?

A crescent is a road or street that follows a curved or semi-circular shape, often found in residential areas. It usually forms part of a larger network of streets, but instead of being straight, it bends or arcs around. Buildings are typically lined along one side of the street, creating a more scenic and quieter route, offering a unique and less direct path through a neighborhood.
