urban retreat
Metropolitan peaceful haven
An urban retreat is a peaceful space or experience within a city environment—a place to escape urban stress without leaving town.
It might be a spa, a quiet garden, a meditation center, or simply a calm apartment: The rooftop terrace became her urban retreat.
The phrase also describes the phenomenon of people or businesses leaving cities: The pandemic accelerated the urban retreat to suburbs.
