Activities in New York


Hey guys, 

New york City is such an amazing City and there is so much to see and do. It's not just Times Square and Liberty lady, therefor I would like to give you some tips and trip ideas to make your stay at New York City unique.

Typical New York City Places to see:

Times Square (junction of Broadway and 7th ave.; W 46th Street)
Rockefeller Center (5th Avenue; 50th Street)
     Known for the City's best view
Empire State Building (5th Avenue; 33th Street)
Chrysler Building (Lexington Ave.; 42th Street) 
Grand Central (Park Ave.; 42th Street) 
     Visit the Zoo, it looks like in the movie Madagaskar
Flatiron Building (junction of Broadway and 5th Avenue; 23th Street)
Ground Zero and One World Center (West Street; Liberty Street)
Central Park (between Centralpark Street and 110th Street; you can't actually miss the park, it's huge)
Guggenheim Museum (5th Ave.; 88th Street)
MoMa (Avenue of the Americans; 53th Street)
Wall Street (self-explanatory)
Statue of Liberty (Liberty Island) 
     You'll have an unbelievable view on the Liberty Lady If you use the Staten Island Ferry AND It's             
     actually free!
Brooklyn Bridge 


Places you should add to your trip! 

Brooklyn Bridge Park
      Perfect point to see the skyline of Manhatten, especially nightimes
Castle Clinton Monument in Battery Park
      Just looks stunning
United Nations (united nations plaza; 44th Street)
The High Line Park (parallel to 10th Avenue; Gansevort Street- 30th Street)
     Did you know that this Park is build on old rails? It's super replacing up there!
The New York Palace Hotel (Madison ave.;  50th street)
Waldorf-Astoria (park ave.; 49th Street)
     if you know Gossip Girl you'll recognize those two hotels


Things you should do!

Fly with a helicopter over Manhattan
Go to the Top of the Rock
Go on the Empires roof
Take the subway
Visit some of those awesome parades in Manhattan, like Thanksgiving Parade or the German-American Steuben Parade, which actually is tomorrow (20th Sep.)
Eat at ShakeShak! Their burgers are mind-blowing
Visit a Yankees Game or a American Football game, even If you're not a sports fan you'll definitely enjoy it!
Visit a festival, the Festival in little Italy ends this weekend! 
Visit as many markets as you can find, the fruits and vegetables are the best
Visit Hoboken, New Jersey 
    That's where Frank Sinatra really lived.
    I heard, that the coffee in Hoboken is simply the best


In conclusion, be open-minded, New York is the Melting Pod, you nearly can't avoid a clash of cultures. Follow your instinct and just go with the flow If you want to, because Adventures want to be found, they're not waiting at touristic hot-spots for you! 

See u.
