In pictures: Autumn colours in New York’s Central Park
The green heart of Manhattan, Central Park covers 843 acres of seriously expensive New York land. It’s an escape from the bustling city for both New Yorkers and tourists, with over thirty-five million visitors each year. The park is made up of a mixture of lakes, lawns and woodland, with walking tracks and bridleways running throughout. You can rock climb, ice skate, watch a theatre performance, visit the zoo or go kayaking all without leaving the park. And in autumn the leaves of oak, maple and elm trees turn a rainbow of vibrant reds and oranges. Some of the best colours are quieter northern part of the park, where you can kick leaves your way through piles of autumn leaves to your heart’s content.
Fabulous Lucy! Central Park in Autumn looks like a picnic for the eyes.
These are beautiful colours! I went recently to capture the last leaves – they are still hanging on
Looks fabulous, I have been to New York twice and never got around to visiting Central Park either time, It’s going on the to do list!
Love Central Park and the trees are gorgeous!
Beautiful pictures!
So pretty! I live in southern California, so I’ve never actually seen “fall colors.” I’m going to Boston for the first time at the end of this month, and I can’t wait to see the colors in person!
Have a great trip – I hear the colours on that coast are spectacular!
