FALLing in love with Central Park
As winter is setting in full force I’m remembering the beautiful colors of fall. Such a vibrant time when nature releases one last burst of color for the world before sleeping as the cold sets in. Coming from Southern California there wasn’t much of a seasonal chage where I lived. Now that I’m in New York I really wanted to feast my eyes on all these beautiful leaves.
I think the part that makes it so wonderful is the fact that it's so fleeting. It makes you take a second look at a tree and really appreciate it’s last show.
I was looking up the best places to see the fall foliage in New York most were quite far away, but Central park was a natural oasis right in the center of the city. In the past I've come to Central Park to bike and rollerblade around it. This time though I just wanted to stroll around and soak it in.
A really great spot in central park is the Rambles. You feel like your hiking on a trail twisting and turning around trees. Following on you’re treated to views of a lake with lovers rowing on row boats around. As we exited the rambles we walked past the iconic Bow Bridge where many movies have filmed. There were alot of wedding photo shoots being done here and for good reason. Im sure the pictures came out stunning.
Over all this was my most enjoyable time I've had in central park. Next time I come back it’ll have to be to ice skate the lake and get a taste of winter.

What’s the best way to see Central Park
I honestly have no concept of how big Central Park is... there seems to be hundreds of movies and photos taken of it every year, and nothing ever gets doubled it. It must be massive.
We had our first fall in our new place, and it was spectacular... but it's all looking a bit bare now. We can see our neighbours... who we've never been able to see before.
Also, great punny title, I very nearly missed it.
It's great that you get to enjoy the seasons right outside your place! Central Park is so big that it surprises me. I've been back a few times and it seems I'm always finding new parts to enjoy! Glad you caught my title 😉
It is beautiful. I have never been. That last shot looks like a fairytale castle
Thank you!! Yea that building is so interesting to me. Like from a different time. I like the looming clouds over haha adds a bit of drama. Thanks for checking out my post!
So it does. I was so caught up in the fairytale that I did not notice the impending doom :)
Impending doom, I like the foreboding in that. Whats a fairy tale without some suspense right? =)
Indeed!

Thank you! So far its wonderful! Im bracing myself for the winter though. Gotta bundle up. How's the weather like where you're from?
Many people like winter. You can see different beauty outside that you can't see any other time. I'm from Bangladesh. It's cold here. But here you don't see snow. Looking forward to reading more posts like this.
