Central Park
New York City is known as a concrete jungle! The city that never sleeps with blinding lights from Time Square and skyscrapers towering over everyone. Central Park is a unique escape with beautiful scenery and architecture throughout the 843 acres. You can enter the park from the East Side (5th Avenue) or West Side (Eighth Avenue) from 59th to 110th Street. The Center Park Conservancy website provides guides to the backyard of NYC!
