Explore Bryant Park
The 4 acres of Bryant Park, which is located just south of Times Square, are among Manhattan's most stunning. Although Bryant Park's beautiful green area has been around for more than 150 years, it underwent a revitalization project in the 1990s that turned it into a haven for residents and visitors. In addition to being the ideal location for fashionistas to strut during fashion week and artists to exhibit their skills during Broadway in Bryant Park and Piano in the Park, this is where midtown Manhattan businesspeople love to spend lunch.
Bryant Park does not require an organized event for you to enjoy it; you may visit this location to take in the views or use the free Wi-Fi. Recent visitors do, however, offer a few recommendations, such as going to the New York Public Library (located facing the park's Great Lawn), ice skating around the Pond, or riding the carousel with French influences. There are still more things to do on the list. Additionally, Bryant Park supports knitting groups, chess competitions, yoga and tai chi sessions, and literary activities. Not sure where to begin? Consider your options at Bryant Park Grill and Bryant Park Café, the park's restaurants. Recent visitors praise this park's well-kept grounds and say a stroll around it is a wonderful escape from the bustling metropolis.
