Top 7 public parks in New York City
2021年10月18日
New York is often referred to as the concrete jungle, but there are many beautiful green spaces within the city you can enjoy. From Manhattan to the Bronx, here’s a list of our favorite parks.
Brooklyn Bridge Park
Brooklyn Bridge Park is 85-acres of greenery with stunning views of the Manhattan skyline. This park is popular for the many fitness activities available to you, such as sports courts, a roller rink and a rock-climbing wall. There’s even a carousel you can ride with your family!
Central Park
Central Park is one of the most recognizable parks in the world. This iconic spot is filled with fun things to do, such as renting a rowboat, taking a horse-drawn carriage or visiting the Central Park Zoo. Located at the heart of the city, its perfect for relaxing, exploring and enjoying nature.
The High Line
Built on a converted old elevated rail line, The High Line is one the newest parks in NYC. While walking along the 1.45-mile-long walking trail, you can stop by the food vendors, play with your kids on the silicone-coated steel beams or take in the unobstructed views of the Hudson River.
Little Island
The 2.4-acre public park in Hudson River Park on the west side of Manhattan is home to a wooden waterfront amphitheater where local artists perform free or low-cost shows. Families can also use arts and crafts supplies from the on-site mobile Art Cart. If the park becomes too crowded, visitors may need to wait on the South Bridge until it’s less busy.
Pelham Bay Park
Pelham Bay Park is NYC's largest park. It offers sunbathing at Orchard Beach, two golf courses and the historic Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum. You can also take horseback riding lessons at the Bronx Equestrian Center.
