New York's Central Park

Just before the US Civil War a plan was devised to set aside an area for open spaces, trees, and a refuge from the city. Many looked to similar parks in London and Paris for inspiration.
Over the years Central Park has become one of the most filmed locations in the world and there are many different ways to enjoy this beauty. If you’re up for an urban hike, you can walk and see many of the famous locations in a single day. We love renting bikes and riding around the entire park. If you’re short on time pedicabs can be hired for an hour tour of the park’s most famous features.
Inside the park there are restaurants, museums like The MET, there’s a zoo, many bridges fountains and play areas. Central Park is best enjoyed by just wandering around.
