The Pond

Central Park, New York

"mysterious mandarin duck"
"such a peaceful place"
Arched stone footbridge is iconic

Escape the city buzz at this peaceful pond tucked beside Gapstow Bridge. Watch for the famous Mandarin duck among turtles and waterfowl, with Midtown's skyline rising behind the trees.
