Central Park

The plot covers 843 acres. It's two and a half miles long and half a mile wide, nestles in the heart of Manhattan next to the trendy Upper West Side. It's even bigger than the the tiny European country of Monaco, which only covers 500 acres. 

An estimated 42 visitors make their way to the park every year, making it one of the most visited tourist attractions in the world.

One of the most interesting facts about Central Park is that although it might look natural, almost all of its rolling slopes and valleys had to be created from scratch. Central Park is an entirely landscaped space, meaning that all of the hills, woodland, lakes and other natural features are entirely man made. 

Central Park has it's very own castle, the Belvedere Castle

which was once used as a weather station but now is a look out.

The largest lake in Central Park is the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, which covers a huge area of over 100 acres, and contains a whopping one billion gallons of water.

          

You will even find Alice in wonderland.
