Central Park
59th to 110th Streets
New York, New York, 10023
(212) 310-6600
While walking through Central Park northbound towards the Boathouse, I came across the famous movie location of the Bethesda Terrace. Seen in tons of movies and a popular romantic hotspot, this place is amazing and after being there, you can see why. The overlook looking down onto the Lake with its many boats aimlessly rowing around is a relaxing sight. Also, at the bottom of the stairs, directly in the center is a large fountain called Angel Fountain. Surrounded with a concrete border, the fountain is a popular place for reflection, picture taking, and people watching. There is usually a street performing musical group playing different styles for the passing families and lovers. Please remember to bring some change or a dollar or two to donate to the efforts of the musicians and other style of street performers.
With the Lake a stones throw away and Gondola boats coming up every so often for a romantic ride, this place screams love and romance. And with the Boathouse Restaurant right on the other side of the Lake, the romance can go on fro as long as you want it to.
