JSONException: Value of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject

Question

I have a JSON file with 2 JSON-Arrays in it: One Array for routes and one Array for sights.

A route should consist of several sights where the user gets navigated to

Answer 1

This is simple way (thanks Gson)

JsonParser parser = new JsonParser();
String retVal = parser.parse(param).getAsString();
