"There is so much to see here year round that it’s best to cover it in two parts (half day for each). I did the southern part first and went to the popular spots first like bow bridge, wollman rink, the mall to the Bethesda fountain and strawberry fields. The night skyline view from Gapstow bridge is also amazing. There’s live music in several spots and plenty of quieter trails on the north side too. I started from the north side to do the loch double waterfalls in the north woods and then walk down to the ramble via the Belvedere castle. I would avoid doing the horse carriage rides if possible because they are priced pretty steep for the small distance they cover."
"I absolutely loved Central Park! It was as great as the movies make it seems. Although exploring for part of 2 days we didn't even see half of what it had to offer. We did get to enjoy the zoo, the carousel, a bite to eat, a market, a lake, and a really nice walk through the more foresty part! I absolutely want to return one day to check out more of what it had to offer."
"They have probably the cleanest restrooms you will ever come by... well, lets see there are plemtly of trails, a coffee shops with foor and hot drinks on tje lower side of the park. There is the foutain, and the castle, which are cool to wander around, to the north is the resivoir, which is basically a rilunning track. For the health nuts out there.... but, when you are in the parks it is easy to forget you are in the city... A great place to wamder aroind for a bit."
