After finally getting my bearings and heading back north, I had a WONDERFUL time going through Central Park in New York. So many wonderful things to see every where you look. Incredible sculpture, architecture and craftsmanship EVERYwhere. Amazing that they’ve kept this amazing parcel of land intact for so long. It was warm, drizzly, and quite foggy as I entered the park… but that NEVER stopped my adventure! It’s just water… you’ll dry off!!!
I entered the park at the southwest corner at Columbus Circle.
As I stepped into the park, I was taken by the low-flying fog engulfing the park.
Every detail
And
And
And
And then you enter the lower level of Bethesda Terrace to find a hidden treasure…
And amazing installation of colorful & illuminated ceramic ceiling tiles!!!
The Loeb Boathouse
Hans Christian Anderson statue
Alice In Wonderland statue
The Metropolitan Museum of Art
Three Bears stature by Paul Manship
The Belvedere Castle
Bank Rock Bridge on The Lake
Ramble Arch Bridge
Bow Bridge
Finally needing to bring my adventure to an end… I made it though the Central Park Zoo and headed out the southeast corner of the park. I loved this really cool “birdcage” sculpture by Ai Wei.
Followed by the more traditional Tecumsah Sherman statue across the street from The Plaza Hotel.
Sure, I may have gotten “lost” for the first part of my adventure…
but it was totally worth it with this incredible tour through Central Park.
Always my favorite place in New York City!!!
