Carl G. • December 25, 2015Great place to escape from the noise of the city. Huge area to explore with plenty of lakes and quiet spots to enjoy a picnic.
Johan S. • November 30, 2018Excellent garden. Maintenance does an amazing job of caring for all the trees, bushes, and flowers. Especially beautiful during the summers. Still, very elegant during the fall and winter months.
AlAnoud A A. • November 8, 2021Street performers, outstanding scenery and perfect if you’re into doing your own thing in the middle of the city! My favorite spot to get a book and cup of coffee then let the hours pass by peacefully
Thomas P. • September 6, 2015I love the small winding paths in this area of Central Park. It's also great for watching the canoes on the lake.
Lauren F. • September 23, 2013The upper Westside is quite quiet, Great restaurants, and lots of things to do which makes it a great place to live. Tons of subway train options too
Roger S. • August 17, 2014This formal space is a wonderful spot for a stroll but also to watch rollerbladers and the best approach to the Lake.
Kristine Y. • January 16, 2012Amazing place for a long run. Almost feels like you are out of the city and so many runners are out as well!
Kimmie O. • August 3, 2020Great grassy area for picnics, sports, people watching & laying out in the sun for sunbathing.
The Mark Hotel • June 19, 2012Our Concierge at The Mark suggest the slope on Cherry Hill as a perfect picnic spot, located west of Bethesda Terrace near 72nd Street.
rob z. • September 4, 2010Summit Rock is the highest natural elevation in the park. Peaking at 137.5, it stands just a few feet above Vista Rock, home of Belvedere Castle.
ℳ𝒶𝓎♍ • April 2, 2023The history behind this obelisk is so great and that it found its way from ancient Egypt to Central Park is actually sort of mind-blowing! Definitely pay this spot a visit and really take it in!!
Shaun Y. • March 14, 2017Amazing spot for a calm-down and to get a little headspace - great place to read, write, and meditate.
L. T. • June 9, 2015One of my favorite parts of the park for scenery, people watching, and lazy walks. You can even turtle watch at the pond.
Jeremy W. • August 12, 2014This is normally closed to the public, but check Central Park Conservancy's website for hours/days of public tours.
Chef Stacy L. • July 2, 2011Every Saturday hang out with "the people on the hill" and listen to "that gituar man" in Central Park. We've been doing it for 20 years; join us to be part of the next 20
Jay S. • June 20, 2012Originally in Columbus Circle, the pavilion was moved to the Park in the 30's for gender segregated ice skating.
Paige C. • May 27, 2016Such a beautiful view of the city and Central Park! Very hot though (very little shade!) Drinks are delicious!
