Settled in the middle of Central Park, The Carousel is an excellent attraction to bring large groups to for both a fun ride and a good history lesson. The Carousel featured a dedicated souvenir stand next to it, as well as a couple of plaques that described the history of the attraction. The staff working there were quite friendly and explained the full story behind the carousel, from its creation in Coney Island to its migration to Central Park! Would 100% visit again.
