Torzin SJuly 3, 2015One of the best spot of NYC where culture and architecture merge with nature. Not surprise why many films used this spot for romantic location.
- JwowFebruary 27, 2015One of my favorite spots in Central Park overlooking the Bethesda Fountain. Now you have a decision to make, either go right towards the boat house, or left to strawberry fields. You can't go wrong!
Tyler JonesApril 7, 2017STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL. The live music was incredible! I also saw a bridal shoot and a maternity shoot there, too.
ℳ𝒶𝓎♍November 16, 2020My favorite part of Central Park, with the arabesque design of the walls and staircase. It's magnificent. The open area at the bottom of the stairs is where performers/bubble blowers park themselves
Jessica ThompsonApril 16, 2021One of New York's most popular locations is Bethesda Terrace in Central Park. All seem to be patient and taking turns taking pictures. It's a nice spot to freshen up and take in the sights.
The Corcoran GroupJanuary 6, 2012If you’re strolling through the park…this is a “Must See” spot…especially when the water is flowing. Make sure you stop and listen to the singers when they’re in the passageway.- AlAnoud A AlGhunaimNovember 8, 2021Architectural heaven♥️ once again, Gossip Girl fans should definitely check this place out!
- Yaseen RoccaNovember 6, 2014I heard some of the best live music and singing ever at that spot. The natural reverberation from the structure made it inspiring.

Bathrooms, yes, but they are seasonal. The Boathouse or Le Pain Quotidien are the closest year-round restrooms.
