Anyone
seeing Hollywood's typical portrayal of Central Park over the years
would imagine that it is a haven for muggers and rapists, whereas
it is, in fact, a haven for nature, with 26,000 trees, huge lakes
and meadows, and is home to 260 species of bird. 25 million humans
a year get to use the 9,000 benches, as well as cafés, restaurants,
baseball pitches, boating lakes, skate rinks, tennis courts and rental
bicycles.
Rocks in the park, such as those pictured above, are 450 million years
old.
Compared to London's Hyde Park, for example, this park is bigger,
greener, more shapely and offers more entertainment. Unlike Hyde Park,
however, you would be ill-advised to walk or jog the park at night,
unless in the company of savvy New Yorkers.
