New York Vacation: The Dene in New York City's Central Park
Written by VacationIdea.com Travel Editors.
The Dene is a landscaped area of Central Park stretching from the 66th Street to the 72nd Street on the East Side. It features rolling hills, benches, flowers and trees.
There is a rustic wood structure perched on top of giant boulders, surrounded with trees and flowers. In the summer, visitors can rest in the shade provided by the structure and admire views of the New York City skyline.
The Dene is also home to the East Green meadow which is beautiful and romantic in the spring with blooming Kwanzan cherry trees, crabapples and magnolias.
The Dene is bordered by the Central Park Zoo in the south and Conservatory Water to the north. Read more about New York City's Central Park and browse pictures.
