The Park Guide
Meet the park before you book.
Story 1 of 18
Conservatory Gardens
One of Central Park’s quieter wonders, Conservatory Gardens brings three European traditions into six acres: French, Italian and English. Flowers, fountains and clipped hedges give each garden its own character, while the formal paths make this a favorite for weddings and photographs. It is a composed, colorful pause at the park’s northern end.
Story 2 of 18
Belvedere Castle
Designed in 1865, Belvedere Castle was created to bring fantasy and adventure into the heart of Central Park. Its name means “beautiful view” in Italian, and two balconies plus a small promenade still deliver on that promise. The stone lookout turns a park crossing into a theatrical moment, with broad views that feel unexpectedly removed from Manhattan.
Story 3 of 18
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir
A feat of engineering as well as a defining landscape, the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir holds about a billion gallons of water. Built in the 1860s as a temporary city water supply, it now frames one of New York’s best-known running routes. The broad water and skyline views make the park feel dramatically larger and more open.
Story 4 of 18
Strawberry Fields
Strawberry Fields is a living memorial to singer, songwriter and peace activist John Lennon. The site sits across from the Dakota, where Lennon lived and outside which he was killed. At its center, the black-and-white “Imagine” mosaic has become a quiet gathering point for music, remembrance and messages of peace from visitors around the world.
Story 5 of 18
Bethesda Fountain
Bethesda Fountain carries a story about water and public health. After a deadly 1832 cholera epidemic, the Croton Aqueduct brought clean water to New York in 1842. Unveiled in 1873, the fountain honors that healing power. Its Angel of the Waters is the only sculpture commissioned as part of the original Central Park design, making the terrace both beautiful and deeply civic.
Story 6 of 18
The Mall
The Mall was designed as Central Park’s grand promenade, where New Yorkers once walked in their Sunday best. Today it is equally famous for one of the country’s largest surviving stands of American elms. Four rows of mature trees meet overhead to form a cathedral-like canopy, turning a straight path into one of the park’s most photographed scenes.
Story 7 of 18
Balto
In 1925, a diphtheria outbreak threatened Nome, Alaska. Balto helped lead the final leg of a dog-sled relay that carried lifesaving antitoxin across hundreds of miles of ice, water and blizzard conditions. The Central Park statue honors that endurance. Generations of children have climbed onto the bronze dog, polishing parts of the sculpture with their hands.
Story 8 of 18
Alice in Wonderland
In 1959, publisher and philanthropist George Delacorte commissioned Alice in Wonderland as a gift to New York’s children and in memory of his wife, who read the story to their family. The sculpture was made to be touched. Children still climb among Alice, the Mad Hatter, the White Rabbit and the Dormouse rather than viewing them from a distance.
Story 9 of 18
Bow Bridge
Named for its graceful archer’s-bow curve, Bow Bridge was built in 1862. It is Central Park’s oldest cast-iron bridge and one of its most romantic crossings. The water, skyline glimpses and ornamental railings have made it a natural film location, appearing in movies including Manhattan, The Way We Were and Keeping the Faith.
Story 10 of 18
Carousel
A carousel has been part of Central Park life since 1871. Three earlier versions were destroyed by fire, yet New Yorkers kept bringing the ride back. Today’s Carousel is more than a century old, one of the largest in the United States and home to 57 hand-carved horses. It still carries generations of families through the same joyful circle.
Story 11 of 18
Shakespeare Garden
Created in 1913, Shakespeare Garden gathers plants and flowers of the English countryside that appear across Shakespeare’s writing. Rosemary and pansies recall Ophelia, while thistles point to Much Ado About Nothing. A white mulberry adds another literary thread: tradition links it to a tree Shakespeare is said to have planted in 1602.
Story 12 of 18
Turtle Pond
Turtle Pond rests below Belvedere Castle and takes its name from a thriving turtle population. Many arrived after owners released pets here in the 1980s, and the community grew. The pond also preserves a piece of city history: it is the last remnant of the Croton water system, New York’s first steady source of clean water.
Story 13 of 18
Great Lawn
Spanning more than 55 acres, Great Lawn earns its name. On ordinary days it is a place for baseball, picnics and sunbathing; on extraordinary ones it becomes a vast outdoor venue. Concerts by Elton John, Simon & Garfunkel and Diana Ross drew enormous crowds, turning this everyday green into part of New York’s shared cultural memory.
Story 14 of 18
Azalea Pond
Azalea Pond draws bird watchers with its gentle stream, tall trees and sheltered setting. Century-old azaleas add vivid seasonal color to the surrounding green. The landscape was shaped to recall the rugged Adirondacks, so the area feels less like a formal city park and more like a small woodland discovered by chance in the middle of Manhattan.
Story 15 of 18
Wagner Cove
Wagner Cove is an easy place to miss and a rewarding place to find. Tucked beside the lake, it offers a quiet retreat for a date, lunch or a few minutes away from the city’s pace. The rustic shelter has also become a sought-after wedding setting, especially in fall when the surrounding leaves turn red and gold.
Story 16 of 18
Harlem Meer
Harlem Meer remembers the historic village of Harlem, settled by Europeans in the 17th century; “meer” is Dutch for lake. Today the water anchors a lively wildlife habitat at the park’s northern edge. Its changing shoreline invites fishing, watching birds and simply slowing down, with a character that feels distinct from the formal landscapes farther south.
Story 17 of 18
Untermyer Fountain
Untermyer Fountain came to Central Park after lawyer and civic leader Samuel Untermyer died in 1940. The bronze group, Three Dancing Maidens, is a cast connected to a fountain in Berlin and once stood at Untermyer’s estate. Its circular movement and raised basin now form the centerpiece of the French garden within Conservatory Gardens.
Story 18 of 18
Burnett Fountain
Burnett Fountain honors author Frances Hodgson Burnett in the English garden at Conservatory Gardens. The sculpture brings Mary and Dickon from The Secret Garden into the landscape: Dickon plays his flute while Mary watches the birds. It is a gentle memorial that connects a beloved children’s story with a real garden designed for wandering and discovery.
