Central Park is an oasis amidst New York City's bustling urban landscape, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux in 1858 as America’s first landscaped public park. Spanning over 843 acres, it offers visitors serene walking paths, picturesque lakes, and vibrant meadows where city dwellers can escape into nature without leaving Manhattan. Don’t miss landmarks like Bethesda Terrace or Bow Bridge; each spot holds its own unique charm and history waiting to be discovered.

The Empire State Building has stood tall since its completion in 1931 as one of America's most recognizable skyscrapers and a testament to human ingenuity during challenging times such as the Great Depression.
