Central Park

Central Park in autumn is a kaleidoscope of color. Take a leisurely stroll along scenic paths, or rent a rowboat and paddle across the lake. Visit Bethesda Fountain, where you can admire the intricate sculpture of Angel of the Waters. Feeling adventurous? Go for a hike up to Belvedere Castle, where you'll enjoy stunning views of the city. As you leave the park, be sure to stop at the Metropolitan Museum of Art or the Guggenheim.
