One of my favorite places to get lost in the city. An amazing Oasis in the middle of the cement jungle. Always something for everyone. Make sure to go further in the park and get away from tourists.
Did you know? To create that feeling of being in the countryside, and not in the middle of a city, the four Transverse Roads were sunken down eight feet below the park’s surface.
Visit Cherry Hill in late afternoon, walk across Bow Bridge over to the Ramble and watch the sun set over the Westside.
Such a beautiful park. You’ll always have breathtaking waterfront views of NYC. Lots of grassy area for picnics. Plenty of things to do here. Certain piers have designated sports sections.
I have never worn skinny jeans, but if I did I would wear them here.
Watch the sun set over Manhattan as the East River glistens before you.
Escape the grid of Manhattan for this verdant strip along the Hudson. Perfect for picnics and waterside relaxation.
“My history is a Hudson River history,” said Albert Butzel in a 1997 Talk piece about his battle against highway expansion and for the park’s creation. It only took him twenty years. Read more.
The perfect place for a stroll and a cigar. Blow smoke rings, even if you can’t.
Amazing museum... You can spend countless of hours here. Ancient Egypt, Chinese, Japanese, Roman, and don't forget the paintings collections
The best place to gawk at priceless art has a collection that is seemingly endless, spanning creepy Egyptian tombs to the shimmering Impressionist paintings to an unparalleled costume collection. Read more.
Hanging out on the Met steps is a New York tradition, and billionaire David Koch has pledged "at least $10 million" to renovate the fountains outside the museum. Read more.
One 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.
If 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.
A beautiful park and a must see for any visitor. It's perfect when you just want to sit on a bench and read a book or do some people watching. On nice days you can find all sorts of live music too.
Home to a free summer music festival since 1953, where music “usually heard in the sanctity (some might say imprisonment) of small concert halls” mixes with the elements, as described in 1987. Read more.
Girls happened here. Marnie, Shoshanna, and Ray discussed Jessa's flakiness and Shosh ran into a "vintage" rollerblading classmate.
One of my five NY preferite places. Stunning by any side, not only the fountain but all the terrace. Underpass is great, too, and often there're artists exploiting its peculiar acoustics.
Designed by Emma Stebbins and dedicated in 1873, this fountain was the only sculpture commissioned as part of Central Park’s original design. Its official name is “Angel of the Waters.”
Put your back to the fountain and shoot through the arches. This is a beautiful shot day or night.
Amazing park. Tiny, but lively and packed with activities. Ping pong, reading room, and a carrousel to name a few. Plus lots of great food options. My favourite spot in Manhattan.
“Many of the midday strollers in the park are office workers; they have the subdued mood of prison inmates released into the yard for their daily hour of sunshine and exercise.” —Victor Chen, 1974 Read more.

Great view!!! Great place to read a book on grass under the tree!
Go to the top of the rocks and just enjoy the beautiful view.
You CAN actually get away from the traffic, crowds and the noise/smell of the City!!
Great location, close to many major tourist attractions. The best cathedral in the city, very big, very great, very awesome! A-must-see spot.
Work began in 1858 but was halted during the Civil War and resumed in 1865. It was completed in 1878 and dedicated on May 25, 1879. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1976.
Stop by and enjoy their Gothic architecture!
An iconic NYC location. Great views. Perfect for biking, running, walking, and photography, but tends to be more crowded in the warmer months.
The Brooklyn Bridge was completed in 1883. It was the longest suspension bridge in the world from its opening until 1903 and the first steel-wire suspension bridge.
The best view of NYC offers a stunning panorama. From the midpoint of the massive suspension bridge, there are spectacular sight lines of Brooklyn Heights, Dumbo and lower Manhattan. Read more.

The most scenic – and flat – loop in Central Park! The loop is approximately 1.5 miles and filled with sweaty and sexy runners and walkers.
Spectacular old theatre. Check out the sculpted ceiling and the opera boxes on the sides. Amazing workmanship long gone from newer theatres. Well organized with plenty of help showing you to your seat

The best place to remember why you love Manhattan takes you above the city while keeping you rooted in urban life. Walk through a field of wildflowers as cabs zoom along the street beneath you. Read more.
Built in the 30s, this was an active railway until 1980. "Friends of the High Line" formed in 1999 with the idea of turning it into an elevated park similar to the Promenade Plantée in Paris.
