These will include the Obelisk, popularly known as Cleopatra's Needle - a 3500 year old Egyptian monument in the middle of Central Park, Belvedere Castle - a beautifully romantic edifice, and working weather station, that provides one of the most beautiful views in the park and the Swedish Cottage - a rustically designed marionette theater.

From there you'll walk around the Lake to Strawberry Fields and the Imagine Mosaic, New York's internationally inspired memorial to John Lennon.

A short walk east past the Statue of Daniel Webster will bring you to Cherry Hill and its beautifully ornate fountain. A short walk down the hill will bring you to Bow Bridge, a brilliant example of cast iron design and one of the most photographed and filmed sites in all of Central Park.
