The most filmed park in the world, it’s easy to see upon a simple stroll why Central Park in New York City has been the setting for a plethora of popular movies and films. With a history spanning over 150 years, Central Park is a gem, in constant innovation and development which has made it a favorite attraction among tourists and locals alike. What first started as the first major park for public use back in 1848 has become a source of pride for New Yorkers – a green oasis that feels natural and completely in tune with the surrounding concrete jungle that is New York City. Host to concerts, baseball games, celebrations both large and small, romantic couples, rambunctious pets, and scores of joggers, you’d be hard-pressed to find a New Yorker who doesn’t feel the charm of this state landmark. While staying at this hotel in NYC, guests at the Hotel Wales will find themselves very conveniently close to Central Park, whether they prefer a short cab ride or a leisurely walk.
