Central Park Tour
This serene body of water at the park’s southeast corner offers an immediate retreat from the bustling city streets. The forested hill above the pond is the Hallet Nature Sanctuary, which is occasionally open to visitors. The pond’s northern point is spanned by the famous Gapstow Bridge, which you’ll likely recognize from photos and films. The bridge over the pond, with the Plaza Hotel and skyline as backdrop, is a classic NYC view.
Strawberry Fields – the peaceful retreat that was created in memory of John Lennon, who lived (and was murdered) just across the street. Its centerpiece is the Imagine Mosaic, which is often decorated with flowers by devoted Lennon fans.
Belvedere Castle – perched high on a hill, this stone castle offers magnificent views of the park and the cityscape. Inside the castle is a visitor’s center and the surrounding terraces offer spectacular vistas.
Balto – The Siberian Husky sled dog who led the final leg of the 1925 serum run in which diphtheria antitoxin was transported from Anchorage, Alaska to Nome by dog sled to combat an outbreak of the disease.
The Obelisk, “aka” Cleopatra’s Needle – One of only two ancient Egyptian obelisks built in Egypt around 1450 BC to commemorate the 30th year of Pharaoh Thutmosis III’s reign.
Alice in Wonderland – This 7 foot high sculpture from Lewis Carroll’s 1865 classic, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland pictures Alice sitting on a giant mushroom reaching toward a pocket watch held by the White Rabbit. Peering over her shoulder is the Cheshire cat, flanked on one side by the dormouse, and Mad Hatter.
