Experience the retro charm of bobbing along to organ music atop one of the Central Park Carousel's 52 saddles. The carousel is in its third incarnation since 1871 (the original was horse-powered, and the next two were supposedly destroyed by fires), and the current version dates back to 1950, when it was discovered in a Coney Island trolley terminal.
It's open seven days a week (weather permitting) and costs $3.25/ride. Find the carousel mid-Park at 65th Street.
