A Snippet of Life in New York
Travel
In terms of travel, there are many tourist attraction sites in New York City that you can visit. The Statue of Liberty is one of the most iconic landmarks in New York. It is over 153 feet tall from the base to the torch and offers great views of this beautiful city. Central Park provides a nice space for you to walk, peddle, or enjoy a carriage ride. The park is half a mile wide and 2.5 miles long, and it’s a beautiful place to experience nature in the heart of the city. You can also visit the lake, Central Park Zoo, Strawberry Fields, and the Belvedere Castle.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art is another great place to visit and contains over 2 million pieces of artwork. The collection highlights include arms and armor, decorative art, musical instruments, Egyptian art, photographs, costumes, and so much more. Other popular sites include the High Line, Times Square, Brooklyn Bridge, Fifth Avenue, and the Empire State Building.
Food
Food in New York is great, with world-famous foods such as pizza and bagels, to local cuisines like Falafel Land sandwiches. Stop by a local deli for a pastrami sandwich, including a pile of hand-carved beef pastrami on freshly baked rye bread with a dollop of yellow mustard. The New York Bagel is a must-eat in New York, complete with all the toppings, including smoked fish, lox, cream cheese, and more.
A BEC, or bodega-made bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, is the best way to kick start your day in New York. And of course, you must drink as New Yorkers do with some of the best coffee around. Enjoy a latte to have the energy needed to take on the city!
Events
New York holds many events, from sports events to art shows, and from Broadway musicals to massive music concerts. It is home to the New York Knicks, Yankees, Jets, Mets, and Rangers, so it’s the perfect city for every sports fan.
