It was a beautiful day and everyone was out in the park enjoying the sun. There were photo shoots of couples in their wedding garbs. The stroll was great. More

Vast. Pretty. Diverse. Quiet. Eclectic. It's like a microcosm of life in NYC, but out of the hustle and bustle. It's not just a park. It's Central Park. A must visit. More
