I know when thinking of activities, visiting a cemetery is usually not first on the list, but this is definitely a place you should visit. I first came here 2 years ago during the beginning of autumn. I returned again today. It is really really spectacular. There's many trails, a pond , tons of history, they even have tours . It is extremely peaceful, today I even saw groups of families taking pictures, hiking , enjoying the architecture sitting on the bench, praying and just walking about. Again it's a cemetery so be respectful but if you want to take in all of the gorgeous Fall Foliage and you don't want to go to the usual parks with the massive crowds this is definitely a great place to get some fantastic autumn photos.
It's a place I like to see less reviews understand people because the cemetery doesn't exactly treat it as a real attraction. I went a few times a week and didn't find many people. Saw the trees, plants, statues and various birds inside. I feel like I can accept it as a place of interest. There are also interesting places of interest that have stories to tell. It is not even inferior to the adjacent Prospect Park, after all, this cemetery is also large. There are just no big lakes and a few medium-sized river pools. You can also experience climbing in it, with many winding paths. You can also go to the high slope like a hill, you can see the whole Manhattan, in the high place can see the Brooklyn city look.
Interesting place to have a walk. There is an office where you can get a map with different types of walk around the cemetery, so you can choose yourself what you are interested in- natural walk, art&architecture walk and history walk. For each stop you can find a small explanation on the map. We came around 9.30 am on Sunday, office was closed, but we found maps outside. Restrooms clean and tidy, were open. I found a lot of trees there, such as Japanese cherry and magnolia. I believe this place would be beautiful in spring. Walking at this place feels more like museum, not cemetery. Would visit again.
My friend recommended to go there and have it in my mind after that. Beside the fact it’s just 20 minutes drive from my place I have never been there before. The park is gorgeous, Clean and nice. It’s unbelievable that you are in the middle of Brooklyn and see such a beautiful place. And the fall should be the prettiest session
Went for a walk in the entire cemetery on a winter morning. I wanted a place to clear my thoughts and breath fresh air. There is a lot of history, architect and many walking lanes that you can follow and get yourself immersed.
Even though it is a cemetery, it is a beautiful escape from the city. Lots of history as well. Also apparently a good place for birding. Easy to get a bit lost though so take a free map / have your phone as a map.
This is a beautiful cemetery with nice rolling hills. It also offers some stunning views of the city too. This was my first time visiting, and I definitely want to go back in the daytime so I can better see the treasures in the cemetery!
Coming from Brazil for my third visit, I again found this place extremely well-cared for with stunning beauty providing great peace of mind. This was Central Park before Central Park and that's say it all.
Your exhibition “After the End” is phenomenally moving and glorious. I hope you consider making it a permanent installation: it is perfect for Green-Wood in every way. Love and loss, light and beauty. The day I visited, a group of preschoolers was there— what an amazing, thoughtful and probably very unexpected experience for them. An exhibit such as this would make Green-Wood an even more impactful “destination”— I haven’t stopped thinking about it and am thankful for having spent such a magical morning in the chapel meditating.
There is a colony of parrots that some bow found their way to this cemetery for many decades have evolved and not only grown to outlive the harsh winters but have expanded their population. It’s a surprise and fantastic sight to see.
