My family and I had a great visit to Central Park. I have wanted to walk here for many many years and this year I was able to enjoy it with some of my favorite people in this entire planet. Met some new people and was able to pray for some, great joy of my life.

A memorable place for me. Bow bridge is where some guy proposed to his girlfriend and just a few minutes after my boyfriend went down on one knee and proposed as well :).
Central Park is a vibe! It's my spiritual place for sure. It fills me with inspiration & creativity, awakening imagination & fantasy. Great place for a morning run, sweetest walk with your beloved dog, simply to chill or work, seating on a soft grass, staring at a blue sky, surrounded with all shades of green. Don't be surprised to meet a white rabbit with a clock, hurrying to his red queen :)
I've visited New York many times and always been meaning to get to the park but never managed until this trip. It was a beautiful autumn day and we walked for hours. I love the horse and carriages and it is so peaceful despite being busy
I had the most amazing day here. I wasn t actually expecting us to stay so long or have that much fun but it turned out to be one of the best days I had in New York City. We rented bikes for two hours and rode around and stopped at various points. Then after we dropped off our bikes we sat and drank iced coffee then walked around the park. Toilets are obviously not spick and span but were surprisingly cleaned than I expected! Bonus - there were little baby turtles in the lake! Spectacular day - I had lots and lots of fun here!
Central Park is undoubtedly one of the best places in NYC, probably in the U.S. and the world as well. During this pandemic, Central Park is one of the reasons that help keep me sane and refresh. Long life, Central Park!
Walking through Central Park is literally a breath of fresh air in the city. If it's your first time I would trimmed walking as opposed to riding a bike that way you'll be able go everywhere with much less hassle and at your own leisure.
Great and giant park. A place to walk and do excercises. Picnic and excellent pictures.. it's so good to see places from our favorite movies. Just use Google maps to know where you are. Just be careful It's easy to be lost in thousands of different roads. Great to see during winter summer spring or autumn. Any time of the year.
One of my top 10 things to do in New York city
My suggestion to everyone If you can start from Columbus Circle metro station. Nice views of Manhattan and central park. Grab some food from whole foods market and start to walk through central park. Bethesda fountain top 1 places to know!
Thank God they thought enough to construct/preserve Central Park. A giant oasis in a city of sterl, stone and glass. Wonderful concerts in the summer. Charming restaurants. Relaxing walks. Boat rentals. Ares for sports. And the Metropolitan Museum. One of the world's finest.
Central Park was one of the most beautiful places that I visit in a long timeI really enjoyed the wildlife the atmosphere the flower house was so beautiful and clean
Absolutely breathtaking park. Lots of places to explore like restaurants, monuments, gift shops, ect. Walked through this park for hours and enjoyed every second of it.
Great and memorable place which has been iconic in lots of movies including Elf and Home Alone. Make sure you enjoy a horse drawn carriage ride round the park.
Absolutely stunning and to think it s in the middle of such a busy crowded city it really gives you a nice break from the hustle and bustle of New York City.
Okay we all know Central Park is incredible. From the sites and views of the skyline and celebrities high rise homes surrounding it, to the famous movie/TV show moments filmed in it, to the overall experience of the park itself - it s impossible to see the whole place in a short time. We were approached by a Pedi-Cab driver upon walking into the park (as I m sure most people are), and let him give his spiel. He was friendly and hilarious, and was willing to give us a deal due to the exchange rate on the Canadian Dollar. It was a chilly day and we had already walked several thousand steps, so we agreed to the trip. Honestly, best decision we made during our time in NYC. He was so informative and funny; he played music in lead up to certain points of the park (Friends theme song heading up to the fountain, Let It Be on the way to the John Lennon memorial), and made sure to stop at many places, volunteering to take photos of us for our memory banks. We also had blankets to keep us warm. The trip was supposed to be 45 min long, which turned into 90 minutes, with him even driving us back to Times Square afterwards! Even if he made up half the info he provided, I don t even mind, it beats having to walk around for several hours without having any information on what you re looking at ,i hope this review will useful for many peoples ,if u like click like thank you
Spent the day in the park with my daughter. She loved the play grounds. We spent about an hour at the Billy Johnson playground. Tons of places to take pictures.
Beautiful park in New York city. Worth a walk through the park, especially as a new visitor to NYC. Should certainly be on your list of things to do. Will need hours to walk through the whole park, but on a fine day, it's a lovely peaceful walk in one of the most bustling cities on the planet! It's a must visit.
Nyc is really a great city. I love everything new york especially the diversity. I feel most comfortable there anytime of day and suburbs are nice but quiet after 7 pm. There is so much to do in New York city. I love to go there to do yoga but unfortunately because of virus everything seems standstill. Even then its great to visit.
Must visit place at NYC. It is like Oasis in the heart of a moving city. If you can , apart from day, also visit in the night. I have had this experience and it was good to walk in silence and talk with few people walking around. Amazing park.
If you love to take long walks and have amazing views this is it. My first time in New York and this park was beautiful. So many things to see great to take pictures or to read a nice book. We went in a rainy day so I do recommend to take rain boots it got little bit muddy.
It was great being here - it is a popular destination often seen on TV. A huge contrast between Manhattan city center and the Park. Easily accessible by the subway. Central Park is massive (got lost a few times and couldn't find my way back to the same entrance) and has great views - take a run, watch the birds, have a picnic, people watch, find the squirrels, do yoga, or just take a stroll and take in the view.
Would do anything to visit central park in a pleasant weather. Its incredibly beautiful. Your new york trip will not be complete of you do not visit central park. The best side to enter is from front of the park lane hotel. That way you ll be closest to the bethesda terrace.
A must see. So many iconic film areas and it is beautiful. The park is too large to walk. You can have a rickshaw drive you on a tour to the iconic spots, but be careful not to be over charged. Lovely people! They can spot a tourist a mile off!
Love the outdoors my wife and I just find this park so beautiful, the bliss of my life is so beautiful. Mother Nature is so much better than indoor life, we can t stay inside homes.
You can not help but love Central Park a moment of tranquility in the crazy that is New York. There is always something going on, nice walks. It is recommended to spend.a few hours here taking it all in.
What a park! Hired bikes for 5 hours and well worth it on a fine day. So much to stop and see. One way system is great for runners and cyclists around the park. Bike hire also gave a free map of the park to help with stop off points. Also stopped off for a cheeky drink at the Tavern on the Green. Brilliant experience and definitely worth doing whilst in NYC
It's a beautiful beautiful park. There are a lot of carriages and food stands. There is a place to go ice skating. There are many museums to admire and it grants a beautiful view to the city of manhattan. It's feels like you are outside of the city even though your still in it. A get away from the stress in side of the city, with beautiful nature. It's a great place to calm down and relax.
As interesting place as it is with its scenic views and various attractions, for me the most interesting part was to read what's written on the back of the benches the park has to offer and imagine the lives and the people who have donated them
Always an experience. There is an impressive park in every big city, but Central Park has something very special. I found it e.g. For example, it's great to just walk in and be amazed to see how wonderfully the green is framed by the shiny and bright high-rise buildings. Really stunning
Beautiful park, but at night it stinks the entire area of the zoo and covers part of the city center, including many racoons entering and leaving the garbage tanks. Nice but nasty.
What a natural beauty at the center heart of NY and between high corporate buildings...should really appreciate the community maintained being part of so populated place near by its gem for everyone's, it's pure nature stuffed in mid town.
I usually spend a good four hours here. I absolutely love jogging on a nice Saturday and get my five miles in. I even ran into my favorite fashion designer Carolina Herrera one day! You never know who is hanging at this maze of a park. I love NY!
Lovely big park with loads of areas to walk to and explore! Lovely eateries dotted around the park. Loads of birds that are all friendly as well as the squirrels who will literally eat peacefully out your hand!
Always one of my favourite places in New York to go and relax. You can walk around and you'll meet so many different people doing so many different activities. Musicians singing,playing instruments,people doing shows. Filled with scenic views where you can also take wedding photos?(seen many couples do post wedding photoshoots). Love how much beauty and history this place holds!
After seeing the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall we took a walk to Central Park and ended up taking a carriage ride around the park . Our horse and buggy driver was excellent. He gave us a lot of information on the park in the surrounding hotels and much information. It was nighttime but the park appeared very clean and safe
This park never ceases to amaze me. been here so many times and i always find something new about it. spending some free time alone under the shade, or picnicking with friends and/or family. and my favourite part it s right in the centre of manhattan
Not what I expected. This park is so lively and huge. So full of life and many things to explore and do. Absolute gem in the midst of a big city. Great for solo exploration, the couple, and families. Something for everyone of all ages. This park will literally take your whole day to explore so please pace yourself. Definitely a repeat place to visit.
Amazing park in the middle of the Big Apple. I absolutely loved the nature and atmosphere. My little brother was really entertained by the turtles in the lake.
I love coming here. Summer or winter, it's a great place to get exercise or stroll to reflect. The park is so huge its hard to get bored of it. It's been in so many movies that's its actually fun finding all those places. In the winter I can actually see more of the park since there's no leaves on the trees. It's a beautiful forest in the middle of the busiest city in the world!
Amazing: The variety of landscape, seasonal & activity options; the enormity of (nearly unseen) improvement & maintenance operations, and the imagination behind its very existence (age, sheer size, availability to all ) is all mind-boggling. Whether for a quick, quiet respite from the hustle n' bustle, or full day of activities and "escape" it's one of New York City's most precious assets.
A big breath of fresh air in such a big city. It's a park full of activities (tennis courts, metal bars for work out, baseball, softball, ice skating, etc), recreation (Sheep Meadow, The Great Loan, North Meadow and others), exploration (Chess & Checkers House, Naumburg Bandshell, Bethesda Fountain, Belvedere Castle and many others)
Central park is the place where you can escape the city. It's nice to have a place like this because sometimes I feel that the city is to much. If you want to see the whole park maybe if you rent a bike is going to be a lot easier for you.
Everyone should go once I there life just to annoy the New Yorkers. Other than that it's an incredible oasis in the middle of the greatest city on earth. Paris is close and unique but nothing beats NY for diversity and the great feeling of being in such a huge city that feels like a million little towns really close together.
