Best Parks In New York Near Me

Jesus Angulo: Relaxing place in the heart of ManhattanCentral Park located in the heart of Manhattan, has a series of attractions, a zoo, games for children, including a carousel with a lot of history, an area for theater performances and I believe without a doubt that the most important thing is those paths with forests that are filled with green in the summer and a reddish color in the winter, which allow us to have moments of relaxation and to forget about the world that surrounds us; There are several spaces, it is only a matter of walking a bit and locating the best one to enjoy a moment of peace, tranquility in the midst of the hustle and bustle of what it means to be in New York

Nella McDi: We knew that we weren’t going to be able to do the whole park with the limited time we had. We visited the last Saturday in June. We started at the southern end. With a quick visit to the Plaza hotel. Someone online had suggested doing the park in this order and it worked out fantastically.Our first stop was Gapstow Bridge, it was beautiful with the city skyline as a gorgeous backdrop. Woolman rink was the next stop which had an enormous number of tennis courts.Central Park carousel was very nice. Went down to the Mall, there is a bandshell and bunch of buskers. We really enjoyed Bethesda terrace and the fountain with the backdrop of a lake, beautiful setting. Wagner cove has the bow bridge, a couple were getting engaged while we were there. Strawberry fields was very nice, not what I expected, I thought it would be a huge open area but it was a treed area very peaceful had lots of benches. There is circle on the ground that says imagine that people get their picture taken. There was a young lady Star span, had a great voice and sang Beatles music By this point we were hungry and still had a good chunk of the park to go. We went to the 72nd street diner and split a grilled chicken sandwich. It was amazing and best of all reasonably priced. They had an awesome selection of foods. Would definitely come back, wish we had a place like that back home.We stopped at the ladies pavillion to have our lunch, they had covered benches by the water and best of all there was a gentleman playing music and singing. It was awesome.Walked through the ramble. Then went to Belvedere castle make sure to climb the stairs to the top, it is free to get in. Beautiful scenery from both observation decks. Walked past the obelisk and behind the met and walked to the Guggenheim. We did that all in 3.5 hours with some breaks to sit and have lunch. Central Park is beautiful, so many different areas to explore. I’m sure we just scratched the surface. There are so many benches all over the park and many artists playing and singing scattered all over. We saw people selling water, fruit cups and ice cream. I was expecting to see actual food venues, maybe they are in different parts of the park that we did not go to. So if we came back I would pick up lunch before coming into the park so that we could avoid having to leave the park to get food.It is an amazing park that you could visit again and again. We had no time to actually go into the museums, maybe the next time we are back.

אבריימקה אייזנשטיין: פארק חוויתי, רחב ידיים. מסלול מדהים לאופניים!

Gustavo González Menoyo: You can't miss a walk on the high line

Ahsan Ali: Beautiful sunset spot

Foster McLaughlin: I love it here on the weekends when the park is full and everyone is having a great time. I dont like though that the parks department does not hold people accountable for their mess. It ruins the park for everyone later on. I feel like there should be parks people present during the weekend holding people accountable for the waste they bring and leave behind.My backyard! Beautiful! Great place to escape and feel like you have some space to breathe. Amazing space to go for runs and never feel like it's dull.Playground: There are 2 playgrounds on both the North side and South side of the parkRestrooms: There is a public restroom near the Isham and Seaman entrance.Dog-friendliness: So many dogs here and a great dog run too.Picnic area: Such a beautiful place for a picnic and in the peninsula where the little league park is you can barbeque there only.
