Bethesda Fountain

The Bethesda Fountain, the gorgeous focal point of the Bethesda Terrace, is one of the largest fountains in New York, measuring twenty-six feet high by ninety-six feet wide. It is one of the most well known fountains in the world, and the statue at its center was the only sculpture to have been commissioned as a part of Central Park's original design. This neoclassical sculpture, also known as Angel of the Waters, features an eight-foot bronze angel who stands above four small cherubim representing health, purity, temperance, and peace. The angel herself carries a lily in one hand while the other remains outstretched, poised in the action of delivering a blessing on the water pouring from around her feet and into the basin at the bottom of the fountain. This is to commemorate the 1842 opening of the Croton Aqueduct, which supplied New York City with fresh water.

The ride was enjoyable and worth doing. However we were very dissatisfied about the charge. We booked and paid in advance £144 for a family of 4, yet only to find out the ride would have cost only $100 if we had hired a carriage at the park. Felt ripped off.

Hi Yoko. We are happy to learn that you enjoyed the ride. There are different types of tours in the park, ranging from 20 minutes to one hour. The drivers working for cash misinform online customers to convince them to go with them only to find out that they would charge them much more than what they say at the beginning. The $100 price is for a short ride, 20-25 minutes. Our ride is 45 minutes and it follows the long circle in the park. Prices are generally higher during Christmas period and the cash payers end up paying more for a tour that is much shorter because the driver would not have any responsibility for providing a good experience., they would just try to finish the tour as quick as they can.

Got to see more of the park that I didn’t actually know was there! Also to hear about film locations throughout the park

Fun, relaxing, educational, a little romantic. A little rain, a little sunshine, a little color and interesting people. Luis was terrific.
