One of the best spots in Central Park to wind down during your lunch break or have a picnic with friends.

Prime sunbathing time is between 10:30am and 3pm; we suggest you claim your spot early on this 15-acre expanse, one of the most popular ray-catching spots in NYC.

When friends are trying to find you in this giant meadow with no landmarks, text them a dropped Google Maps pin of your blanket location. Then lie back and take a nap while they look for you.

This spot in the park - beautiful and cozy in all seasons. In winter, it's close to the skating rink, summer/spring/fall - easy access to volleyball/baseball courts. We like to just lay and read here!

This 15 acre meadow was once inhabited by sheep from 1864-1934. Today you'll find sunbathers, kites, frisbees, guitars & much more.

For a Summer in the City, lunch alfresco and sunbathe in the park. Keep it simple with Cable Classics.

bring a lover to share in the joy of writing poetry and sitting in trendy clothes on your grandmother's blanket under a tree when the weather is warm.

Keep your eyes peeled. You might see "This Week" anchor Christiane Amanpour riding her bike in the park. She loves to ride her bike in the park and all over NYC. Follow her on Twitter: @camanpour

Walk to the center of Sheep Meadow for a great 360 degree photo opportunity of the surrounding city.
