Built in 1908 and still spinning, the Central Park Carousel is one of New York's most beloved and accessible family destinations. With 57 hand-painted horses, it's a genuine slice of New York history — and at $4 a ride, one of the city's best deals. The park comes alive in spring, making it the perfect excuse to combine a ride with a picnic on the nearby lawn. Open daily weather permitting, mid-March through October.
