ℳ𝒶𝓎♍July 27, 2018A classic in Central Park. It's more about the hype than the actual ride, which is much like any carousel. Why I love it? it brings me back when the 1990s were great and cool to be a kid again :-)
Townley GirlAugust 3, 2011Enjoy New York's most beautiful park and take a ride on the famous Central Park Carousel. Lines can be long so we highly recommend going during the weekday evenings.Upvoted Oct 20
The Corcoran GroupMay 16, 2011Get your tickets before you wait online – go during the week to avoid a wait. If you’re filming your little one, make sure you have a flash…it’s a bit dark inside.
Jim ♕ @4sqGlos ᶳᵘ6October 15, 2011Don't be afraid to ride as a grown up without kids. You can be a big kid here! :-)
