The most popular and picturesque New York park, sandwiched between 8th and 5th avenues. It appeared in the mid-nineteenth century, and the project was worked by landscape architect F. Olmsted. The park almost immediately became a favorite place for picnics, walks, sports. Office clerks are resting here for lunch break, moms with children are lying on the picturesque lawns, lovers of steam are riding on the lake in the boats.

It’s only something I feel can be experienced in person. Pictures do not do justice! Central Park was amazing! It’s crazy how you can be in the park and not hear the city at all beside a faint siren, but other than that you almost forget your in a big city…. Walked it from top to bottom and still did not see everything. Plenty of places to sit down and relax and just take it all in…
Listen, if you have ever thought about going… DO IT!! I did a bus trip from Bowman bus services and was not disappointed at all. Make the trip!

Whether people think of it as the heart or the lungs or some other organ of New York City, I can't imagine that this city could exist as it does today without the availability of Central Park as an escape for New Yorkers.
I gave myself a day and half to be explore the park and I Loved every minute of it.
I started out by buying some Nathan's hot dogs and heading into the park to find a nice big field to have lunch in and watch the people around me. It was great. I ended just sitting and people watching for about 3 hours.
On day one I walked up the west side of the park and on day two, I entered at the northeast corner and walked down.
I saw the Lennon Memorial, walked the ramble and around the reservoir. I visited Bethesda Terrace and listed to an opera singer and walked down the mall where so many movies have been filmed. I crossed the Bow Bridge went to the waterfall.
All I can say is that Central Park is officially my favorite place in New York. Give yourself time to explore it and take the it all in.

Read more » with hundreds of others who care about fitness. It can have you feeling like you're all a part of an exercise class because there are so many people who work out along the paths. Or maybe you just want to take a lay on the grass and bask in the sun while listening to music, read a book, meditate, etc. I chose to do some walking before sitting by a lake and watching some ducks and turtles peacefully go about their business. The turtles appeared as if they were constantly peeking at me due to their heads being the only visible part to be seen. Lol. There were also some turtles perched on some rocks before they decided to take a dive into the water. I guess those rocks were absorbing too much heat and they couldn't take it anymore. There are vendors in various places throughout the park who will be selling ice cream, juice, water, etc to help you face the hot weather we're experiencing now. I felt such a cool breeze as I sat and ate my ice cream. The beauty of this place is amazing with the large areas of well kept grass and beautiful flowers (see my pic included). I've seen people fishing here and someone even caught a huge fish (see pic included). Sadly, I did see dead animals, 1 being a baby turtle :( I promise you will love it here and it doesn't hurt to bring someone along to keep you company.
