Very peaceful spot! My girlfriend and I came here after visiting the Museum of New York City. What a good decision that was! If you’re looking for a spot to get away from all the city noise, the Conservatory Garden is perfect for you! There are a few fountains and a canopy that is really cool to sit and relax under. The views are actually pretty good in here, too. You’re best bet is to bring a friend, book, newspaper, etc. to get lost in while you’re here! Such a great spot!

Hidden gem for a nature break: come through the tall gates to find one of the most gorgeous gardens in central park. With plenty of seating benches across the garden and plenty or photo ops. I loved spending time here and just rotating my seating area and chasing the sun through mature trees.

This park is beautiful. The fountains, flowers and beauty of this hidden gem is energizing during these crazy times. There are 3 fountain areas all next to each other with different looks and vibes. There is a cool coffee shop not far called dear momma grab coffee and go!

I really enjoy going to the Conservatory Garden. Its a peaceful and beautiful place. Its a place to forget about every day worries. I appreciate all the work that goes into making it so great!

Serene and beautiful spot to sit in meditation or calm reflection. The gardens are a welcome escape from the busy hustle and bustle of the streets just a stones throw away. Gorgeous and definitely an energy you should experience for yourself.

Hidden Gem in Central Park. Beautiful to walk around and admire this part of the park. It is maintained and nice for taking photos (wedding or other) or for chilling about and reading a book on one of the benches. It is not like a botanical garden so it is pretty quick to walk around and see the whole garden. There is also a bathroom available here.

Beautiful garden that would be even more incredible in the spring or summer. It was nice in November but its best to go when the flowers are in bloom. The gardens are well maintained. A hidden gem in Central Park that is free to visit!

Very peaceful and lush area. Free to visit.

This was amazing and I know I say that a lot but it was. I walked around took pictures and just enjoyed the peace and quiet of the garden. Plenty of places to sit and relax and take it all in. This is a must visit if you think the city is nothing but tall buildings.

One of the most beautiful places in NY that you can go to for free. Well kept and a good place for pictures! Would highly recommend.

Just Magical Garden to be and study about variety of plants. Feel free to come to visit

Its like being in a beautiful garden maze. The fountains and the tree paths are spectacular. It was a beautiful day to just walk through the garden and climb trees and rocks with my family. Great photo ops!!

Lovely refuge from the hustle and bustle. There are there sections of this formal garden near the northern end of Central Park, just off 5th Avenue. The sections on either end each have gardens with fountains in the middle. The center section has a large open lawn with a tall fountain at one end and the Vanderbilt gate at the other end. On the other side of the fountain is a raised pergola festooned with a dense cover of wisteria, that turn a rich purple when they bloom in late spring.

This review is about the Enchanted Lights show. It is so other worldly and beautiful you will experience true holiday spirit. A light and sound show with lovely, calming music and well thought out interactivity for children. It was so wonderful we had to go back a second time. This will definitely be our new annual holiday tradition. Wish I had known about it sooner! Tip: book in October if you have younger kids because weekends and early time slots go fast.

It is a magical place. Perfect for families, lovers, friends... the perfect place to enjoy nature and read a book in an idyllic garden! Strongly recommended!

Fabulous place to come and enjoy the day. Yes, you should do some research to find out if its the right season to visit - depends on what youre looking for - but thats like any other Gardens; Its SEASONAL.We had our engagement pictures taken here and it turned out absolutely gorgeous!

Absolutely delightful. Lots of places to sit and people-watch, bird-watch, wide open spaces and well landscaped. We love the open lawn. Disappointed that it was off limits, but at the same time so enjoyable to visually inhale a large open grassy area.

So beautiful and serene! I truly loved this place and will definitely return.

Quaint gardens and relaxing atmosphere, the two fountains are beautiful. The location is close to the large pond with turtles, and an old Clinton Fort, so even that the gardens are small there is more space outside for nice walk.

Peaceful. Clean. Enjoyable. Exercise. Bike. Run. Jog.

The Conservatory Gardens are an incredible oasis in the midst of the city. Located at the northeastern end of Central Park, and is comprised of three separate gardens, a beautiful majestic fountain, countless trees, bushes, flowers, and beautiful lawn. You will love it!!

With three magnificent fountains, my favorite being the boy flutist with girl welcoming birds for a bath and drink.And the mezzanine terrace, behind the central geyser fountain, of interlaced wisteria, invokes a magical mysterious vibe of a secret garden semi-circle nook.A wonderful place to explore and search for the most esoteric of birds, from other dimensions, the red-firey Phoenix and the eternal unicorn.The actual creatures of the attainment of longevity harmonizing with the infinite of the cosmos.

Laste summer early fall . Very colorful.BeutifulYou must visit

Gorgeous! I would actually recommend entering the park here if you intend to visit this spot. From the road there is a huge iron gate that you walk into where the fountain and a lot of beautiful greenery starts. Entering here will make you feel like youve traveled through time. lots of shaded benches near by, CLEAN BATHROOMS behind the fountain and overall a very peaceful place!

A must see for Manhattanites and tourists alike. Even in late fall. There is beautiful display of flowers in some areas.

This space is a gift to all of New York. It’s spectacular at any time of year! It’s become my go-to spot when I want to feel uplifted.

It is magical! Each corner of this place has so much charm. Walking through through this place you can forget that you are in New York Citya and be one with nature!

Always a lovely respite from the city...

I work nearby and this place has become my haven to get away from the stressful day. Its most beautiful in spring, but its great in summer and fall too. If you ever in the area, definitely stop by for a visit and great views

5 star to the recreation and park administration in Central Park. They doing such a great job in maintenance. The only issue I saw was deep into the forest trails , that garbage was pile up on some those spots there.

This is a hidden gem where you can find solace and beauty. The garden is home to a variety of plants and flowers. There is also rest stops near the area. Hard to admit you’re still in Manhattan.

One of my favorite places to go with a date or friend for a relaxing romantic time..

I had my wedding pictures taken their on May 29. 2002. It is a beautiful place with lots of flowers. A perfect wedding photo album

A gorgeous garden nestled on the East Side, perfect for sitting out or a reception (permit required).

Very scenic. Nice place to take photos

They are taking great care of my home town park and garden.

Absolutely stunning gardens, I feel like this part of central park was extremely quiet when I visited but was definitely one of the nicest. The fountain dedicated to children was the highlight a majestic tree and site. Strongly recommend seeing this as its also free

Perfect place for a walk, during our lunch hour

Beautiful place, quiet and serene.

The Conservatory Garden, located in Central Garden is undoubtedly a beautiful and peaceful oasis in the heart of a bustling metropolis.It is among my top ten attraction to visit in Manhattan, NY.The Conservatory Garden is a great place to have engagement or wedding photos or a great place to visit alongside family and loved ones!!!

Will maintain garden in the heart of Manhattan. If you bring your binoculars along you’ll see some great birds.

Incredibly beautiful section of the park! The three sections are each uniquely different, but spring has been beautiful this year.No matter the time of year, Id definitely recommend a visit here. After you are done, you can walk west up the hill and through the north forest.

Its so beautiful and serene. Very well taken care of part of central Park.

What a perfect day to hang out with the turtles.

Great place in central park, often not crowded but wonderful as the rest of the park.Here are some typical pictures that you could take in some of the nice spot that the park contains.

This place is kind of hidden, and there aren’t as many tourists. Is extremely beautiful and you can have great views tons of flowers everywhere and beautiful sculptures. We found the place by mistake but I am so glad that we did.

Relaxing and quiet. Lovely.

Love this place, is an eye catching my wife and i take our kids very often, we highly recommended if you love plants and trees.

One of the best places in the park to have a quiet moment. Enjoy the 3 beautiful fountains, walk the tree-covered paths, and marvel and the gardens.

Nice stroll with plenty of benches to rest and take in a little green in the city

This place was added to a perfect day and made it all the more that way ..

Very scenic and pretty.

Its a beautiful place that is under constant care. Youll enjoy the plants, the animals and the fountains.

Shakespeare Garden or Conservatory Garden in Central Park is a must see if you come to NYC in Spring but the weekends can get a little crowded and that can beat the relaxing experience in the garden. There are also restrooms in the near as well as nice cafes in the museums that are nearby.

Most beautiful conservatory garden in the center of NYC!

Beautiful scenery. Great place to relax

Amazing place! Never crowded as the south part of Central Park

The best views are during autumn.

Beautiful, peaceful, well designed place

Very scenic area to walk...just gets very crowded around lunch time. Best times to take photos is early morning for scenery. Anytime of day is great for people watching, but especially late afternoon...lots of shade and restrooms nearby.

The Conservatory Garden is one of Central Park’s best kept secrets.Conservatory Garden offers a taste of English, French, and Italian botanical design all within the same six-acre area. The garden’s unique style lifts visitors out of the chaos of New York City to an almost fairy-tale like land.Such a relaxing and beautiful place. Especially because bicyclists and runners are not permitted. You really do not feel like you’re in New York City when you’re in the garden. It’s a beautiful escape for tranquillity amongst the bustling city.

What a lovely hidden gem!

Our fourth trip to NYC and finally made it to the Conservatory Gardens and they didn’t disappoint despite the drizzly May weather. Beautifully kept, serenely quiet and sprinkled with little surprises at every turn. The rest rooms are so clean! Bonus points: we saw a chipmunk! Must return when the wisteria is in bloom.

On a beautiful day, taking pictures here is breathtaking!

Beautiful place to stroll, year round!

Absolutely lovely!

Beautiful place all year round.

A charming English-style garden in NYC.

Absolutely beautiful! A New York jewel! ️

Beautiful place!

Nice place to stroll around and enjoy the beautiful flowers.

Best place to read a book in the park

Very Beautiful.. enchanting feels like Im in The Fairy Tail movie

Beautiful place very relaxing and peaceful really enjoyed myself

Its beautiful please do not pick flowers. If everyone picked from the plants there there would be none to enjoy. If you want some flowers go to almost any deli in the city.

Very beautiful here. There are benches to sit on as long as you want. Beautiful trees and flowers.

Very peaceful and I had a wonderful time with the squirrels there

Beautiful flowers and fountain. So peaceful and serene. Good place to meditate.

Beautiful oasis in central park and not very crowded. Just wish the type of flowers would be better identified.

Such a lovely place to relax and enjoy the views.

A gem in every way...I went through it on this cloudy, windy, cold day, but flowers were blooming and the smell was aromatic and delightful! Quiet describes this pocket park with the bigger Park, NOT TO BE MISSED!

Not too crowded, nice quiet part of Central Park

I love how peaceful this area is and it makes a great space to read a good book and lay down very peacefully. The only thing that upset me is that the water fountainwas turned off due to Quarentine. The water fountain makes the area ten times better and you can sometimes see rainbows within the fountains mist.

Another beautiful niche to explore in Central Park.

Just a paradise. Picturesque sights.

Beautiful flowers and one of the best spots in Central Park for awesome pictures

Beautiful day. Tranquil and peaceful. A beauty for the eyes to see.

This place is peaceful and serene. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous.

Great gem in Central Park.

Beautiful part of the park. Well maintained gardens.

The Conservatory Garden is delightful. It was the perfect afternoon escape. The grounds are so beautifully landscaped. Totally enjoyed it.

I love Central Park and all of its glory.

If you’re looking for a Central Park wedding, it doesn’t get anymore beautiful than the formal Conservatory Garden. And the best part is this is a paid, permit-only location, so security will keep out the uninvited guests, otherwise likely to bomb your photos.So if you’re not into that sort of thing, check it out. This spot has stunning views in the fall with all the greenery atop the pergola, and in the spring though the pergola is mostly vines all the nearby trees are pink and flowering.

As beautiful as ever.

Nice place in Central Park close to Harlem

Beautiful garden views, nice place to walk

Its funny that weve been to Central Park many times and we never noticed this little garden. The Conservatory Garden is so pretty and is a perfect place for having a break. We visited back in November and the colors were very nice. For more pictures, visit my Instagram (IG: kelledstyle) :-)

Its a beautiful section inside of central park to take photos with or of loved ones.

Enchanting

Honestly my favorite place on earth.
