Imagine Mosaic, Strawberry Fields

Highlight • Monument

At the 72nd Street, on the western side of Central Park, you will find the Strawberry Fields, where the John Lennon followers of the Imagine mosaic meet to sing. The monument is located near the Dakota Building, before John Lennon fell victim to an assassination attempt on December 8, 1980. Incidentally, his wife still lives in the Dakota Building and regularly comes to the memorial to lay flowers there.

Center Drive, Central Park

Highlight • Cycleway

Southern entry into Central Park. If you want to go north through Manhattan, there is the possibility to escape the dense New York traffic here in the park in addition to the Hudson Trail on the bank.

Sheep Meadow, Central Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

After the hustle and bustle of the city, here is a small quiet pool. However, not on weekends and public holidays when it feels like half of New York is here.
