ok these are all Manhattan but
In Central Park there are quiet areas if you avoid Bethesda terrace strawberry field or whatever the Beatles one is called and sheeps meadow - the conservatory garden is especially nice and p empty
The community gardens in alphabet city are small but soooo nice my favorites are the one on the south west corner Ave c and e 9th (there’s like a pond with turtles and shit!!) and one across on north east corner of Ave c and e 9th. Firemen’s memorial garden on e 8th (there’s a koi pond!!)
LASTLY Stuyvesant square park (it’s not actually in stuy town) they have beautiful flowers and landscaping and it’s usually very empty and there’s big big fountains

You can absolutely feel like you’re getting lost in the North Woods of Central Park. There are little hiking paths and streams, boulders, and fewer people than the touristy southern parts of the park. A nice bonus is when you come out on the northeastern side you can peer over Harlem Meer and likely see some ducks!
Hon. mention to Riverside Park (seconding the person who said that), Inwood Hill Park, and Fort Tryon Park (and the Cloisters!)
