- Central Park Carousel - The first carousel in Central Park dates back to 1871. It was a hand-cranked ride powered by a mule and horse hidden beneath the platform.

The carousel features 57 hand-carved, wooden horses, beautifully painted and detailed. The ride is accompanied by traditional carousel organ music, adding to its whimsical atmosphere.
- Central Park’s Literary Walk - The Literary Walk is located in The Mall, a straight, tree-lined promenade in the southern section of Central Park. It’s the only intentional straight path in the park. The walk is flanked by a grand canopy of American elm trees, creating a tunnel-like effect. The Literary Walk gets its name from the statues of famous writers and poets along the path. Statues include: William Shakespeare, Robert Burns, Sir Walter Scott, Fitz-Greene Halleck. The Literary Walk is a favorite spot for artists, photographers, and filmmakers, appearing in numerous movies and TV shows. It’s also a prime location for birdwatching and enjoying street performers.
- Balto Statue - Balto was a real-life Siberian Husky who became a hero during the 1925 serum run to Nome, also known as the Great Race of Mercy. In January of that year, an outbreak of diphtheria threatened the isolated town of Nome, Alaska, especially its children. The lifesaving serum needed to combat the disease was hundreds of miles away, and severe winter weather made transportation by plane or ship impossible. A relay of sled dog teams covered the dangerous route, with Balto leading the final leg of the journey. His team brought the serum to Nome, saving countless lives. Created by sculptor Frederick George Richard Roth, the bronze statue was unveiled on December 17, 1925, the same year as the serum run.
- Conservatory Water - Conservatory Water in Central Park is a picturesque, man-made pond famous for its tranquil beauty and recreational activities. It’s just a short walk from popular attractions like the Alice in Wonderland statue and the Hans Christian Andersen statue. The pond was originally designed to be a formal reflecting pool for a conservatory that was never built, hence the name “Conservatory Water.” Conservatory Water is best known for its model sailboats, a tradition dating back over a century. The activity was famously depicted in E.B. White’s “Stuart Little”, where the titular mouse character races a model sailboat.
- Loeb Boathouse - The current Loeb Boathouse was built in 1954, funded by philanthropist Carl M. Loeb and his wife, Adeline. The Boathouse houses a restaurant and bar offering upscale dining with stunning views of the lake. Visitors can rent rowboats to explore Central Park Lake, providing a peaceful and scenic experience. Rentals are available seasonally, typically from April to November. For a more unique experience, the Boathouse offers gondola rides, led by a skilled gondolier. This service brings a touch of Venetian charm to the park.
- Bethesda Fountain - At the center of the fountain stands the Angel of the Waters, an eight-foot bronze sculpture designed by Emma Stebbins in 1868. Stebbins was the first woman to receive a public art commission in New York City. The angel holds a lily, symbolizing purity, and represents the blessing of clean water to the city, commemorating the opening of the Croton Aqueduct in 1842, which brought fresh water to New York. The area is a vibrant gathering spot, often animated with artists, musicians, and performers.
- Cherry Hill - At the heart of Cherry Hill is the Cherry Hill Fountain, a beautiful, ornamental fountain originally designed as a horse trough. The fountain, built in the 1860s, features a carved stone basin with intricate details and remains a picturesque centerpiece. Cherry Hill is famous for its cherry blossoms, which bloom in spectacular fashion during the spring, creating a pink and white canopy. The hill offers sweeping views of Bow Bridge, the Lake, and the surrounding Upper West Side.
- Strawberry Fields, John Lennon Memorial - Strawberry Fields was dedicated on October 9, 1985, which would have been John Lennon’s 45th birthday. Named after the Beatles’ song “Strawberry Fields Forever,” it symbolizes Lennon’s vision of peace and his deep connection to Central Park. Strawberry Fields was designed by landscape architect Bruce Kelly in collaboration with Lennon’s widow, Yoko Ono, who also funded much of the project. It was designated as a “Garden of Peace” and features plantings from over 150 countries, symbolizing global unity.
- The Dakota - The Dakota was built between 1880 and 1884, designed by architect Henry Janeway Hardenbergh, who also designed the Plaza Hotel. It was commissioned by Edward Clark, head of the Singer Sewing Machine Company, as a luxury apartment building—a novel concept at the time in New York City. It is named “The Dakota” because, at the time of its construction, the area was sparsely developed and considered as remote as the Dakotas in the American Midwest. John Lennon and Yoko Ono: Lennon lived there until his tragic death in 1980, just outside the building. Judy Garland, Lauren Bacall, Leonard Bernstein, and others have also resided in the building.
- Tavern On the Green - Tavern on the Green is a renowned restaurant located in Central Park, known for its rich history, stunning setting, and iconic status as a New York City dining destination. The building was constructed in 1870 as a sheepfold to house the sheep that grazed in Sheep Meadow. In 1934, under the guidance of New York City Parks Commissioner Robert Moses, the sheep were relocated, and the structure was converted into a restaurant. Over the years, Tavern on the Green evolved into a glamorous dining spot, attracting celebrities, tourists, and locals alike.
