Walking in New York is a relative concept, because life here is very dynamic, everything is in motion, and everyone who decides to quietly walk along the city streets and squares is immediately drawn into a many-sided, multilingual, colorful human stream that will rapidly carry into the distance …
Neighborhoods of New York
At the same time, it is known that the city is divided into five districts, which are strikingly different from each other in rhythm, and lifestyle, and attractions:
- New York's business card is Manhattan;
- district of creators of all stripes - Brooklyn;
- Queens is a small copy of the planet earth;
- black Bronx;
- the southern area - Staten Island, is relatively quiet and calm.
Each of the districts has its own monuments and attractions, catering and entertainment establishments. Each of them leaves a mark in the soul of a tourist, all together - they create an amazing multi-colored canvas of New York life.
Travel to famous places
One of the shortest, but informative excursions in this American metropolis can be made using tourist buses. The famous doubledeckers, two-story red cars, move along the ring, making twenty stops during the journey (about 2.5 hours). Each point is a complex of various monuments, which most tourists know well in theory from Hollywood films and chronicles.
You can choose the route of your trip around New York yourself, for example, watch and try to measure the width of the famous Broadway, or walk the streets with Carrie Bradshaw, the heroine of the famous TV series "Sex and the City", trying to meet your love and not lose it in the crowd.
There is another way to explore New York - travel by ferry, which departs from Staten Island. While on board, you can take pictures of the main attractions, including the Statue of Liberty, a gift, by the way, of the French, who respect grandiose plans (you can recall the tower of the Eiffel engineer).
If the tourist has signs of seasickness, then it is better to return to solid ground and find the historic cable car. A quiet, slightly rattling tram will make a trip to Roosevelt Island, which will show a lot of interesting things to those who choose this type of walk.
