Central Park is a beautiful place and it is great that there are parts allocated for people and no dogs allowed. The horse carriages are extremely expensive and we had better time just walking around. Lots of little stands to get drinks, ice creams and hot dogs etc.

We loved Central Park. We didn’t use a horse and carriage as quite $$$ but if you had money a lovely way to explore. We entered from the south and walked to the Dakota building on the edge of the western side, where John Lennon lived and died. Stunning building. Then to the John Lennon memorial. We grabbed a hotdog along the way. So many squirrels, tress in blossom and just quiet and calmness. Stunning historical building all along the edge of the park. Ended at the zoo. It’s huge , we barely saw a quarter of the park. A bike would be good. If good weather a perfect place for a picnic

We rented a tandem to bike around and stopped at various place near the lake, Bethesda plaza and see the cherry tree blossom. It is very refreshing to see that kind of oasis in a never sleeping city like NYC. Walk, run or bike, but go enjoy!

We visited Central Park a number of times during our Easter stay and realised just how massive it is. We explored the southern end a few times and it has so many different parts to it. We took a subway to visit the upper part including reservoir. Such contrast to the rest of the city

I went in early April and most of the cherry blossoms were at full bloom and incredibly beautiful. It was my first time in NYC and I decided to reserve a full day to Central Park as it's huge and I wanted to see most of the highlights. I had about 27 stops that I wanted to see, many of which were close together. I started my day at around 10h30am, from Grand Army Plaza area, and ended at around 4h30pm, back to around the same area (I put all the points I wanted to see on a google map and did a loop around the whole park). My favorite highlights were: Bethesda terrace & fountain, sitting by water at Loeb boathouse, seeing all the turtles in the water close to Bow Bridge, Conservatory Water area, The Egyptian Obelisk and Belvedere Castle.

Central Park does not disappoint. While walking around and thru it for a couple of hours, I can see why New Yorkers love their park! My favorite part was the angel fountain, Bethesda Fountain. There was music being played, the sun was out, the gorgeous fountain was flowing, and it was so calm and serene, even with many people enjoying it. I even saw a bride in her dress, with her groom, having photos taken. My husband loved the Strawberry Fields area in tribute to the late, great, John Lennon. Though outside the park is New York's hustle and bustle, inside the park is a whole different world. Even the squirrels are friendly. It truly is a beautiful place! It's a "must see" to me!

Central Park is an oasis of green in the heart of the bustling metropolis of New York City. Strolling through its winding paths and beautiful gardens is a welcome respite from the noise and crowds of the city. The park offers so many activities, including boating, horseback riding, and even ice skating in the winter months. The many fountains, sculptures, and bridges scattered throughout the park make it a photographer's dream. Whether you want to relax and read a book or take a jog around the reservoir, Central Park has something for everyone. It's a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to New York City.

We took the Taxi bicycle bc we only had a few hours planned for the park. It was $125 for 2 or 3 people for one hour. This does not include the tip. Most of the drivers are foreigners. They try to explain the best they can but just tell them to let you read their folder with pictures. They show you all the sites. If you negotiate with them you can get it lower and they can take you to your hotel or to the closest subway. It’s 2 miles to go around the park. You can walk or rent a bike. They also have Pickleball if your a player.

If you’re looking for some green space in the city, there is nothing better. Excellent playgrounds for our friends’ children. Tons of walking paths. Carousel, live music, art, and views. All free. Don’t miss.

Visited Central Park last week. An amazing oasis in a concrete jungle. Really loved the green spaces and miles and miles of walking area. A very well maintained place.
