      1. Central Park

        Designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, Central Park is the “green heart” of Manhattan and one of the most visited urban parks in the world. Stretching over 840 acres, it was the first landscaped public park in the U.S. and remains an oasis of lakes, gardens, and winding paths. From Strawberry Fields to the Great Lawn, every corner has a story — making it as much a work of art as it is a park.
