When in NYC, if one has never gotten ahold of a good walking tour map (link below to a good one or two) and gone into Central Park to see the sites, you really have no idea what's missed. Firstly, it's huge. Secondly, it's amazing. Central Park Conservancy has a few walking tours but, for the stout of heart and... more

Surprisingly much to see and a nice place to go if you don't want to spend a fortune in the shops. The park is really well kept and the trails are very good. There are a lot of good photo opportunities and a relaxing atmosphere. more

What an amazing place. You completely forget that your in the center of such a busy and crowded city when walking through the park. The small zoo is a bargain for $8.00. The carousel is great for kids and only $2.00 for a pretty long ride. We also did a carriage ride and while pricey was something we were glad... more

Visited Central Park the week of July.7th, 2008. There were seven of us all together and we had planned to take a carriage ride. As soon as we arrived at the front of the park, we were met by some very enthusiastic drivers of the bicycle taxis. We were reluctant and a bit annoyed at first, but they finally convinced... more

Hands down my favorite place in the city is Central Park. There are so many lawns to hang out on, toss a frisbee, play a pick up game of wiffle ball, or even to spread out and have a picnic! I feel like you always run into people you know and it's perfect for these summer days. The best people... more

We spent a day in Central Park and had a great time. We did a carriage ride that was not worth the money for the short ride. However, our driver was great and gave us tips on things to do and see while in Central Park. We ate at the Boat House and the food and service were excellent. It... more

It isn't until you see it that you realize how amazing Central Park is. The fact that it is in the middle of the city is incredible, but the beauty inside of it is fantastic. There is also a beautiful park in Boston designed by the person who designed Central Park. You must stroll through Central Park. A great way... more

We spent a few hours in Central Park watching some ballgames and just chilling out - in that respect its much like any other public park. But... you can also hire row boats and row around the lake for about $12 an hour so we did that and had some good, clean, splashy fun! If you feel like it you... more

Last week we spent some time at NY on vacations and I have to say that Central Park was the best of all. This place is a must for every one travelling to NY, and even more if you're visiting lots of places like Museums and buildings since at some point you might get tired of being surrounded by high... more
