Central Park takes up about 843 acres, or 6 percent, of Manhattan's total acreage, according to the park's official website. It's New York City's second largest park, and it's still crowded.

The New York Times reports that many of New York's parks have been attracting even more people. Central Park specifically saw 35 million more visitors than back in 2011. Events like Summer Stage and the Global Citizen Festival are just a few reasons people love to visit this park.
