First time to New York and I’m already looking forward to going back! The food, the people, the overall vibes and culture - I get why this is one of the busiest city’s in America.
We made use of their extensive subway system to travel between Manhattan, Brooklyn and the Bronx.
Everyone was so lively and kind.

Times Square @NYC
Well well well. I don't know how to describe the experience at TIME SQUARE NEW YORK the world's most prettiest, hot 🔥, beautiful and attractive place. It looks pretty in the day light but as evening wore it's black shawl, the magic 🪄 begins and the place becomes people heaven. At weekends even it is difficult to find place to stand in the square. Life lighten here and you can't even imagine how too much time has been passed. A must visit place. One of my heartiest favourite place. 💕

My trip was to the United States
Full of adventures and exciting activities wherever I go
If you intend to visit New York, this is a report on my trip with the family that lasted 25 days to New York, Orlando and the Bahamas. It was an enjoyable trip in which we visited many important and interesting tourist places in both Washington and New York, such as Disney World, Blizzard Beach, Animal Kingdom and Universal Studios. Florida, Islands of Adventure, Sea World of Orlando, Aquatica, SeaWorld's Waterpark and Wet 'n Wild and other fun attractions Here is a detailed report of my trip and how to plan it.
Times Square
We got off from the hotel for a walk in the famous Time Square, as there you feel as if you are inside a movie, surrounded by cartoon characters from every direction, and filming with them at a cost starting from $ 5 and more, we enjoyed walking, photographing, buying souvenirs, and I searched for people specialized in booking the tourist bus, who are present almost everywhere There are two main companies, City Sights, the bus is blue, and Gary Line, the bus is red, I chose Gary Line with the type of ticket for all lines, which is better, and it was for two days only, with getting off and on at several stations, including the Statue of Liberty, the cost for an adult is $49 and children $39 inclusive Taxes, after we took the Times Square tour we went to the bus station where we took the night tour line and it was a fun tour of Brooklyn for 2 hours and there is a guide on the bus.
I will be posting a series about my NYC trip on more than one Trip.con post

Central Park in New York
Major check-in points in Central Park:
🚶Belvedere Castle: A castle in Central Park, with a display stand and observation deck inside. The architecture blends Gothic and Roman styles.

Finally, exit from 5th Ave, there are many food trucks selling chicken over rice on the street side (who knows, memories of after school in college, must add white sauce, now the price has risen to 7 dollars, it was only 5 dollars when I was studying haha)

A Trip To Central Park NYC
#wecreate
The central Park is an urban park in downtown New York city. The park is huge and spacious and provides an escape from the busy lifestyles and hustle and bustle of the new york city life. There is lots of lush greenery and I appreciate the nature within the park. The sights are beautiful as you see a fair mix of floral and fauna with tall sky scrappers sticking out in the background. If you're lucky you get to see some animals within the park too, like squirrels, raccoons, some ducks, etc. There are several water features in the park and makes the place even prettier. Central Park is ideal for a hike, a jog, a stroll, a picnic or even just taking pictures. My pictures can't justify how awesome this place is and you should visit the park instead, if you are in New York City.
Central Park, New York
Fair warning you know it’s a big park but it’s a big big park. I walked along one side, the the Beatles mural and the Dakota building the first day, took about an hour. I found a lovely restaurant near by for lunch. The next day I started at the met and walked down town, along the way I stopped at the fountain and terrace. There are bathrooms in the park and for public bathrooms they are ok. I got a map as soon as I entered which helped navigate a little but if there are specific things you want to see allow plenty of time to get a little lost on the way

Brooklyn Bridge Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Relax on a cruise ship IN NYC
#newyortrip
Was on a Princess cruise en route to Halifax . Cruise ship was cruising by the famous New York City Skyline and of the the Statue of Liberty and not forgotten the Brooklyn Bridge
New York City skyline was one of the most amazing and beautiful in the world I have seen . A view of the New York City skyline from the sea is a stunning view which I highly recommend
A New York Icon
New York City has many icons and instantly recognizable sites and attractions. One of these is the Brooklyn bridge, connecting Manhattan to Brooklyn.
Of course, built for cars and the subway to pass, you can also walk across; something I highly recommend you doing. The Bridge is a wonderous work, standing high and majestically amongst the concrete jungle. You'll find beautiful scenes of the Manhattan skyline, which are stunning, while traversing this icon which has been there for a long time! You'll also pack in some calorie burning activity!

maximillian_aureliusravenwood Amazing collection of arts
#artshunting
The Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of the world’s top museums and by far the largest in the American. My advice is to get a map. It is super big .When you walk in the front door there are three options: left, right, or straight. So at least you know which type of art you keen in from the map so you can save some time .
It can be very crowded with long line after lunch so try to go early . Not sure how much the ticket is but I remember it a bit steep but still worth the visit .
THE MET in nyc
The Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York City, colloquially "the Met", is the largest art museum in the Americas. Its permanent collection contains over two million works, divided among 17 curatorial departments.
try visiting THE MET at night instead of the day! it gives out a whole different vibe!! #nyc
New York - city of fashion
The fashion section of the Metropolitan Museum of Art is visually stunning - there are multiple layers of stimulation when you look at the lighting, the colours, the dummies, and somehow the temperature inside the museum. You get goose bumps simply out of respect and awe! If you become a member of the museum, they send you really informative highlights of its activities and updates of artists. The souvenir shops have a great collection of fashion design and sewing books…I ended up adding a lot of pounds to my suitcase! #CelebrateWithTrip #newyork #fashion #museum

Iconic Building of New York
#celebratewithtrip
A visit to NYC is incomplete without checking out the unobstructed panoramic views of the city from the iconic Empire State Building. On a clear day, you can see up to five states from the Observation Decks - New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Massachusetts.
The Views is from the 86th floor where you can find the observatory deck . This is the highest open-air observatory in all of New York and offers 360 degree unobstructed views of the Manhattan skyline.
16 floors above the Main Deck lies the Top Deck which offers an even better, but enclosed unlike the open air main deck.
Tip : go on weekday where the line is shorter.

Empire State Building
#nyinsider
❓Did you know the Empire State Building in New York was finished in record time?
ℹ️ Planning and construction of the Empire State Building took just 20 months from start to finish. As many as 3,400 men were used each day.
Unlike many projects, the Empire State Building was finished ahead of schedule and under budget, but it also came with a human cost as some workers were killed during the construction process.
The views from the 360 observation deck are amazing, you should visit. You can see some of the greatest landmarks and buildings on Manhattan Island but also you could see far enough to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty.
