Little Town That Could

According to LiveScience, rainbows are actually not arches. They form as full circles when sunlight passes through raindrops at just the right angle. However, only part of the circle — the arch — is visible to the observer on the ground. Earth's surface blocks the rest of the light — and, therefore, the rest of the halo — which is why it appears as a rain bow.

Peekskill, the little town that could... and did! It's like Mother Nature herself decided to throw a paint party and used the sky as her canvas.

A double rainbow, you say? That's just Peekskill's way of showing off its special effects budget that makes this place so special.

And let's be honest, who needs Hollywood when you've got Annsville Creek turning into a real-life Rainbow Road?

Peekskill is the kind of place where even the weather seems to say, "Hey, look at me, I'm fabulous!" and you can't help but agree.

Peekskill, never change.

A rainbow arches over the city of Peekskill, framing the Riverwalk on the Hudson in a colorful embrace.

Riverwalk features multiple gazebos, offering a serene spot to unwind and savor the beauty of nature and the sunset.
